Accreditation
There are two types of accreditation available to BMT programmes.
- JACIE (see below)
- EBMT Accreditation
The Joint Accreditation Committee-ISCT & EBMT is a non-profit body established in 1998 for the purposes of assessment and accreditation in the field of haematopoietic stem cell (HSC) transplantation. The Committee was founded by the European Group for Blood and Marrow Transplantation (EBMT) and the International Society for Cellular Therapy (ISCT), the two leading scientific organisations involved with HSC transplantation in Europe.
JACIE in collaboration with the Foundation for the Accreditation of Cellular Therapy (FACT) has established standards for the provision of quality medical and laboratory practice in HSC transplantation; conducts inspections, and accredits programmes that will encourage health institutions and facilities performing HSC transplantation to voluntarily meet these standards; and recognises compliance with standards by issuance of Certificates of Accreditation.
