ASCPi Certification: Our Global Response to a Changing World

International certification through ASCPi helps you stay focused on work and education priorities no matter where you’re located.

Graduates of medical laboratory science programs outside the United States are challenged with content that mirrors the standards of excellence established by ASCP exams. The ASCPi credential carries the weight of eighty years of expertise in clinical laboratory professional certification.
