Certification Schemes are those which are independently assessed, accredited and monitored by UKAS.
Approval Schemes are those which have generally not required UKAS accreditation but which still require providers to demonstrate compliance with relevant British or European Standards, or SSAIB codes of practice or criteria.

Although both Certification Schemes and Approval Schemes require a competent management system to be in place, the above schemes do not need providers to have ISO 9001 management systems certification. However, an effective management system, which may be compliant with ISO 9001 requirements, will provide a structured approach, help clarify and achieve business aims and objective. SSAIB offers ISO 9001: 2000 schemes designed to compliment is product certification schemes.
