The International Journal of Conformity
Assessment® (IJCA®) is an international, peerreviewed journal for conformity assessment
academics and practitioners. IJCA aims to
contribute substantially to the fields of testing,
inspection, certification, and accreditation
by providing a high-quality medium for the
dissemination of new knowledge and methods.
Among IJCA’s targeted audience are conformity
assessment scholars, practitioners, and other
interested groups and individuals. Main conformity
assessment fields covered are testing and
calibration laboratories, inspection agencies,
product certification bodies, management system
certification bodies, organizations offering
certification of persons, and training course
developers and providers.
IJCA welcomes contributions in various aspects
of conformity assesment. The editors, while
accepting a wide array of scholarly contributions
from different disciplinary approaches, especially
encourage research that is novel, visionary,
or pathbreaking. Submissions considered for
publication must be interesting, relevant to the
conformity assessment field, sufficiently rigorous
both conceptually and methodologically, and
written in a clear, concise, and logical manner.
