7. Difference Certification - Accreditation
• Certification only states that an organisation is
operating according to a set of rules complying to
relevant (international) standards.
• A certificate does not guarantee that the
products are of top quality.
• Accreditation not only confirms that a QM-
system according to relevant standards is in
operation, but also that the organisation is
competent in performing measurements, tests,
inspections or calibrations.
• It guarantees (to the extend of human error) that
the results are correct.

an action and

action
• Documents are changeable and have to be shown
the development history (revisions), the period of
validity and the extend of distribution.
• Records primarily should not be altered and have
to be kept legible, identifiable and retrievable.
