Learning in Line with International Standards: Professional Training on ISO/IEC 17043:2023

On July 4, 2025, a professional training session on the topic “General Requirements for Proficiency Testing Providers according to ISO/IEC 17043:2023” was held at the State Scientific Research Control Institute of Veterinary Medicinesal Products and Feed Additives (SCIVP).

The event was organized by LLC “NCC Euroacademia”, a leading expert in professional development and the implementation of international quality standards.

What did participants learn?
During the training, specialists reviewed the updated ISO/IEC 17043:2023 requirements that regulate the organization and execution of proficiency testing schemes. These requirements are key tools for:
✔ ensuring the reliability of test results,
✔ improving the quality of laboratory studies,
✔ confirming the competence of laboratories in the veterinary and food sectors.

Why is this important?
Proficiency testing allows the assessment of the accuracy and reproducibility of results, which is particularly relevant for:
• quality control of veterinary medicinal products,
• safety of feed additives,
• diagnosis of animal diseases.

Preparing for ISO/IEC 17043 Accreditation
SCIVP is currently undergoing a new round of accreditation under ISO/IEC 17043. While this is a routine process for our institute, each accreditation is also a new challenge and an opportunity to reaffirm our professionalism as a leading provider of proficiency testing in the veterinary field, to strengthen trust among international partners, and to demonstrate consistent compliance with the highest quality standards.

Advancing Knowledge – Ensuring Quality
Continuous learning and professional development foster modern laboratory practices and ensure compliance with European and global standards.

We thank LLC “NCC Euroacademia” for an engaging and professionally organized training session, and all participants for their active involvement!

Together towards high quality standards!

One Health as a Strategy: Our Institute Joins the NSRA Seminar in Lviv

On June 24–26, 2025, a seminar on the National Strategic Risk Assessment (NSRA) was held in Lviv. The event was organized by the Public Health Center of the Ministry of Health of Ukraine with the support of the World Health Organization (WHO) Country Office in Ukraine.

The State Scientific Research Control Institute of Veterinary Medicinal Products and Feed Additives (SCIVP) was represented by Ihor Mykhailovych Kushnir, Head of the Laboratory for Bacteriological Control of Quality and Safety of Veterinary Medicinal Products. Participation in this seminar was an important step toward strengthening interagency cooperation in the assessment of biological threats that may impact human, animal, and environmental health.

The seminar program included a comprehensive evaluation of existing risks, analysis of potential threats within the “One Health” framework, and identification of priority areas for coordinated response. In preparation for the event, participants took part in an online meeting focused on the preliminary prioritization of biological threats.

The participation of our Institute’s specialist in this seminar contributes to the integration of veterinary expertise into the national strategic risk assessment process and fosters cross-sectoral collaboration in public health and safety.
