The Council on Accreditation has used all three documents for several years and their adoption by AAALAC International's Board of Directors as primary standards signifies the importance of these performance-based guidelines in the accreditation process. Does this mean that we now have to follow ETS 123 for our program to be accredited? Our animal care and use program is located in the United States. I have read that accreditation assessments are based on three primary standards, the 8th Edition of the Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals ( Guide ), NRC 2011 Guide for the Care and Use of Agricultural Animals in Research and Teaching (Ag Guide), American Dairy Science Association ®, the American Society of Animal Science, and the Poultry Science Association 2020 and the European Convention for the Protection of Vertebrate Animals Used for Experimental and Other Scientific Purposes, Council of Europe (ETS 123).
