National Accreditation Recognition (NAR) Committee

The National Accreditation Recognition (NAR) Committee are custodians of the certification process and recognize national occupational hygiene associations who offer certification examinations. To promote global respect for and recognition of Occupational Hygiene Certification Programs organizations which meet or exceed the IOHA Model Certification Program can apply to become a member of NARC and are approved for a five-year cycle. Every five years organizations are re-assessed to ensure they continue to meet or exceed specific criteria and that they show how they continually improve their program.

Each recognized organization appoints an active representative that serves on the committee to uphold and complete NARC activities.

If your organization wishes to apply to be a part of NARC, fill out the form for a preliminary assessment. Please note your information will be forwarded to NARC Chair for review and they will contact you with more details.
