Centers of Excellence
Our Centers of Excellence conduct strategic R&D that enables different emerging technologies to make better use of standards to drive up quality and accelerate commercial success. The Centers see ASTM partnering with industry, research hubs, regulators, academia, and governments from around the world to provide three core elements:
- coordinated R&D to support faster standards development
- programs and services to support workforce development and training
- strategic guidance and funding geared towards the needs of each technology
