IABC & QNZ Merger

The Institute of Accredited Business Consultants of New Zealand Incorporated (IABC) and Quality New Zealand (QNZ) have announced that the two organisations have agreed to merge their operations into QNZ for the purpose of promoting quality and business certification.

All arrangements and international certification approvals that have been put in place by IABC in relation to the Professional Business Certification will not be affected by the proposal. It is believed that the initiative will broaden the scope both in New Zealand and internationally for promotion and international recognition.

The PBC Scheme will be managed as a separate business unit within the new organisation. Two current IABC Board members have been appointed to the new organisation.
