Mobius Institute, the premier provider of vibration analysis and machine
reliability training courses and products today announced that the Mobius
Institute Board of Certification has been awarded accreditation by International
Accreditation Foundation ( www.iaf.nu ) member JAS-ANZ, in accordance with
ISO/IEC 17024 and ISO 18436-1 to provide vibration analysis certification per
ISO 18436-2.
Mobius Institute Board of Certification (MIBoC) is an independent entity within
the greater Mobius Institute organization that is directed by scheme and
technical committees to ensure Mobius Institute and its authorized training
centers deliver training and certification that meet or exceed the requirements
defined by ISO 18436-1 and 18436-2 standards. Through an extensive audit
and review process by Joint Accreditation System of Australia & New Zealand
(JAS-ANZ), MIBoC was awarded accreditation. Accreditation awarded by an IAF
member organization, under the IAF Multilateral Recognition Arrangement
(MLA) ensures mutual recognition of accredited certification between
signatories to the MLA and are recognized worldwide based on their equivalent
accreditation programs. Other IAF organizations include ANSI in the United
States, SAS in Switzerland and UKAS in the United Kingdom.
Mobius Institute joins Vibration Institute (of the United States) and British
Institute of Non-Destructive Testing (BINDT) as being accredited to provide
certification to vibration analysts according to ISO 18436-1 and 18436-2.
Based on a review of previous certification records, JAS-ANZ has declared that
all Mobius Institute certified analysts residing in more than 126 countries, are
qualified to receive a revised certificate that recognizes their achievement as
being certified in accordance with ISO 18436-1 and ISO 18436-2.
"Accreditation is a significant milestone for Mobius Institute and our family of
worldwide authorized training partners. We have worked hard to develop a
practical and impartial certification scheme, so it was particularly gratifying
when JAS-ANZ recognized that our previous certification practices met the
requirements of the relevant standards," said Jason Tranter, founder and
managing director, Mobius Institute. "Adding accredited certification to our high
quality training material, extensive library of 3D animations and simulators and
a raft of other training innovations, truly gives us the strongest offering for
condition monitoring professionals anywhere in the world."
