AOAC has there hands full trying to get all the certs up to date. I think there are changes coming to the food safety industry, with the new government rulings and the focus now on The New FDA Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA)
and the USDA stepping back. With the industry policing themselves more and stricter requirements for industry standards, the certifications are more necessary than ever. With the AOAC only completing 20% of the annual renewals they must be required to look closer at the industry. The certs are out of the company's hands, MMTC is in line at the AOAC and will be up to date when their turn comes up. MMTC ROCKS!!!!!
