NQA has been granted UKAS accreditation for ISO 42001, the international standard for Artificial Intelligence Management Systems (AIMS)
NQA has been granted UKAS accreditation for ISO 42001, the international standard for Artificial Intelligence Management Systems (AIMS). As organisations increasingly rely on AI to drive innovation and decision-making, the need for robust governance, transparency and accountability has never been greater. UKAS #accreditation confirms NQA’s competence to deliver independent, accredited certification in this critical and fast-evolving area. ISO 42001 provides a structured framework to help organisations manage AI-related risks, embed ethical principles and demonstrate responsible use of artificial intelligence to regulators, customers and stakeholders. With this accreditation in place, NQA can now support organisations seeking UKAS-accredited #ISO42001 #certification, from early adopters establishing AI governance frameworks through to more mature users looking to strengthen assurance and regulatory readiness.

Why Documentation Matters For ISO Certification
Why Documentation Matters For ISO Certification ISO standards have a reputation for being quite an administrative burden. Companies sometimes say there’s too much documentation and paper work which requires a full time employee to manage. At the end of the day you are only really documenting what you do, therefore writing it down should be beneficial to the organisation because the process of doing so will highlight what you know already and what you don’t know about your organisation. Finding out what you don’t know will lead to continual improvement (which sits at the heart of ISO certification) and the right level of documentation is what enables it. While documenting processes can feel like an extra task, it quickly pays for itself by reducing uncertainty, supporting better decision-making and helping organisations run more efficiently and consistently.

Bridging The Gap: Practical Steps For Turning Data Protection Policy Into Everyday Practice
Bridging The Gap: Practical Steps For Turning Data Protection Policy Into Everyday Practice One of the most frequently underestimated gaps is how access permissions can become outdated. As employees change roles, take on additional responsibilities, or leave the organisation, their access is not always reviewed with the same urgency as when it was first granted. For organisations looking to strengthen their approach to data privacy, UKAS-accredited certification can provide a clear and independent way to demonstrate that appropriate controls are in place. Certification to ISO/IEC 27001 supports a structured, risk-based approach to information security, helping organisations protect personal data and demonstrate accountability in practice. Alongside this, ISO/IEC 27701 provides a dedicated framework for privacy information management.
