Welcome to the December edition of the International Certification
Report. With each issue, we are continually amazed and grateful for
the increased level of participation from our international colleagues
in our ASCPi
International Consortium. A new Advisory Board from
Thailand joined the Consortium in October, and new members have been
appointed to the Japan and Caribbean Advisory Boards. The International
Consortium for ASCPi
now consists of over 60 volunteers from every
region of the world and we applaud you all for your dedication to the
enhancement of laboratory testing through international certification of
medical laboratory professionals worldwide.
You may have noticed a few significant changes in this issue of the
International Certification Report. First and foremost, following the
unification of the ASCP Board of Registry (BOR) and the National
Credentialing Agency for Laboratory Personnel (NCA), the name of the
agency officially changed to ASCP Board of Certification (BOC) in October.
In addition, at the October meeting of the BOC Board of Governors, the
Board approved a Globalization Committee recommendation to change
its name to the International Certification Committee to more accurately
reflect our objectives. These exciting changes help to propel us forward
in our recognition as the premier certification agency for medical
laboratory professionals in the world!
We are delighted that the ASCPi
International Certification program
continues to grow and is expanding to reach our international colleagues
in all corners of the globe. We encourage your on-going participation in
these endeavors through your Advisory Board activities. We hope you
enjoy the topics included in this issue of ICR and as always, thank you for
your continued efforts to promote and support international certification
in your regions.

Qualification in HIV diagnostics (QHD)
Tecnólogo Médico Internacional, MT(ASCPi
)
International Technologist in Molecular Pathology, MP(ASCPi
)
Renamed International Technologist in Molecular Biology, MB(ASCPi
)
The ASCP Board of Certification is pleased to announce over 1,000 ASCPi
certified
applicants and receipt of over 2,000 applications for international certifications! Thank you
to our volunteers who have assisted in accomplishing these milestones!
At the October meeting of the ASCP BOC Board of Governors, a motion was passed to
rename the Globalization Committee the International Certification Committee to better
reflect the purpose of this committee and further define ASCP BOC’s relationship with our
international colleagues.
The International Technologist in Molecular
Pathology, MP(ASCPi
) certification will
henceforward be named International
Technologist in Molecular Biology,
MB(ASCPi
). This shift is made to better
reflect the responsibilities of the certified
technologist in this category and to reduce
confusion among applicants by maintaining
consistency with the national examination
name shift in the U.S. No changes will be
made to other international certification
categories at this time.
The ASCP BOC Board of Governors
has approved development of a QHD
(Qualification in HIV Diagnostics)
qualification examination for individuals
successfully completing the U.S. President’s
Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR)
training in Clinical Chemistry, Hematology
and CD4 testing. QHD is a formal means to
recognize the contributions of hard working
laboratorians in PEPFAR countries, assists
with World Health Organization (WHO)
accreditation standards and builds loyalty to
the profession by allowing these individuals
to choose ASCPi
as their certification
mechanism. In addition, a formal credential
underscores the efficacy of the ASCP
Institute for Global Outreach’s work in these
settings. Most importantly, an international
qualification option lends credence to
PEPFAR activities and legitimizes organized
training.
The International Medical Technologist
examination is now available in Spanish!
Successful applicants will be awarded
the same credential, MT(ASCPi
) behind
their name. The content guideline is also
available in Spanish and may be accessed
online.
At this time, all applicants must be able to
complete the application in English. Those
requiring assistance are welcome to contact
