ISCD Certification & Facility Accreditation

 

What is Certification?

Certification is the formal recognition of the specialized knowledge, skills, and experience demonstrated by existing best practices and standards in the field of credentialing.  Successful programs build on a foundation of core competencies identified and updated periodically by practitioners in the field. Volunteers at all experience levels and topic specialties legitimize the program through their participation at each stage of the process.

ISCD Certification is for an individual and is separate from ISCD membership.  Click the link below for more information and to learn how to become ISCD Certified:

 
What is Facility Accreditation?

The ISCD Facility Accreditation Program, which is currently in pilot phase, is a dynamic, practice-based assessment of components within a facility that specializes in skeletal assessment.  The program assesses compliance with criteria found in the program's Statement on Essential Elements.  These Essential Elements, developed and updated by the ISCD Facility Accreditation Council, must be evident in all submissions from facilities applying for accreditation.  Definitions, clarifications and demonstrations of compliance with these Essential Elements will be included within all applications and available online.

ISCD Facility Accreditation is for facilities (not individuals) and is separate from ISCD membership.  Click the link below for more information about the ISCD Facility Accreditation Program:
