You may register at any time during the year as long as registration deadlines-2026  or registration deadlines-2027 are not over.

In partnership with the Nancy Hydrology Laboratory of ANSES and with the technical support of INRAE, AGLAE will provide a proficiency test on cyanobacteria in 2027.

In the frame of this test, laboratories will be assessed on their ability to identify cyanobacteria at genus level and to quantify their abundance.

Find the description of this proficiency test on the page Biology and ecotoxicology

- In fresh waters - programmes 59 et 59C "PFAS  in fresh waters", list 1 and list 2

- In waste waters - programmes 59A et 59D "PFAS  in waste waters", list 1 and list 2

PFAS provided in order to meet the requirements of the Water-Framework Directive

- In sediments and soil: programme 48 "PFAS in solid matrices" with the quantification of 21 PFAS

- In sludge : programme 49 "PFAS in recoverable sludges" to match regulation. Measurement of around 20 PFAS included in the list of the European project in sludge coming from a Waste Water Treatment Plant.

The reuse of treated wastewater (REUSE) is still underdeveloped but appears to be a solution for improving quantitative water management. Nevertheless, there is a health risk associated with REUSE even when wastewater is very well treated, mainly due to residual microbiological pollution.
Besides, as part of your accreditation, participation in interlaboratory tests for Salmonella detection may be requested per matrix (fresh waters, waste waters, saline waters).
In this context, AGLAE invites you to participate in interlaboratory tests where the ability to detect Salmonella in waste or saline water is assessed. Check their description page Microbiology in waters

AGLAE provides laboratories with an interlaboratory test regarding the use of Integrative Passive Samplers for the monitoring of metals in fresh waters.

In the frame of this proficiency test, laboratories are assessed for the measurement of 9 metals with DGT samplers (CHELEX chelating resin).

Check its description page Metals in waters for more information.
