Code professionals from International Code Council (ICC) Chapters interested in learning more about the International Accreditation Service (IAS) Building Department Accreditation (BDA) Program should schedule a presentation for a monthly chapter meeting. This popular presentation answers questions about the value of building department accreditation, highlights the benefits of operational efficiency and effectiveness, and is available to all ICC Chapters and building departments, building organizations and code enforcement regulatory bodies throughout the United States.

Depending on the amount of detail requested, the presentation can take from 30-45 minutes, or up to two hours. Other ICC Chapters and organizations in California, Colorado, Louisiana, Oregon, South Carolina and Texas have scheduled this popular presentation during monthly chapter meetings or annual conference programs.

The IAS BDA Program is fully endorsed by ICC. As a subsidiary of ICC, the IAS Board of Directors is made up of building officials. Accreditation teams are made up of code enforcement officials who have successfully completed the IAS BDA Training Program.

If you're interested in the purpose, process, costs and benefits of attaining IAS Building Department Accreditation, please contact IAS Project Coordinator Kellee Lostaunau at 562-699-0541, ext. 3448.
