A warm welcome from your course facilitator
Proficiency testing providers operate in a specialised market shaped by accreditation requirements, scientific credibility and long-term industry relationships. Small and medium-sized providers currently face reduced program participation, increased competition, market saturation and rising costs that reduce profit margins.

The proficiency testing industry is projected to grow by 50% over the next decade, from USD 1.60 billion to USD 2.50 billion.Â
A proficiency testing provider to remain competitive in its business environment and capture a percentage of the projected growth must consider a broad range of strategies. These should encompass organic and inorganic growth strategies as well as new pricing and cost-reduction strategies.
This course will help you gain a fresh perspective on industry-specific business development methods and strategies, while providing an opportunity to discuss and brainstorm solutions for your company's most pressing business challenges.
