Accredited Entities
I-TRACK Foundation Accredited Entities (Market Facilitators) are those Code Managers, Registry Operators, Platform Operators, and Issuers who have taken the steps to coordinate the development of a product market under the guidance of the International Attribute Tracking Standard (Standard).
Labelling Authorities and Labelling Schemes do not need to undergo Accreditation; however, they do need approval from the International Tracking Standard Foundation (I-TRACK Foundation) Board to function in adherence with the Standard.
Accreditation is generally arranged by the I-TRACK Foundation but may also be organized with third-party support or input, subject to approval by the I-TRACK Foundation Board.
Accreditation through the I-TRACK Foundation allows Market Facilitators a means of demonstrating adherence to the Standard and global best practices.
