ISAC, ICCS and ESCCA are pleased to announce that the following individuals have passed the International Cytometry Certification Examination (ICCE) in December:

• Joanne Luider, Airdrie, Alberta, Canada
• Ellen Meinelt, San Jose, California, USA
• Zhengke Wang, Providence, Rhode Island, USA

Since September 2011 the ICCE has certified nearly 70 cytometrists worldwide. The ICCE is now available five days a week at 500 locations worldwide. Please visit www.cytometrycertification.org to register today. Please join the Certification Advisory Committee in congratulating our colleagues in achieving this milestone in their careers.

About ICCE: The ICCE is the result of two years of collaboration between ISAC, ICCS and ESCCA with strong financial support from the Wallace H. Coulter Foundation and with valuable input from cytometrists in many locations and work settings. The process began with a market feasibility study, which concluded that there was a perceived need for a cytometry certification and that there was a common body of knowledge shared by cytometrists in all work settings. A role delineation study was then conducted to produce the ICCE content outline, and volunteers wrote, edited and approved the examination.
