About us
Based on our mission to serve the society, especially the medical laboratory sector, the department of Medical Laboratory Sciences / Faculty of Health Professions – Al Quds University, implemented the External Quality Control Program for medical laboratories in 1995. At the end of the year 2001, the program ceased due to the political events experienced by all the governorates of the West Bank, and the inability to communicate with laboratories. In line with the main objective of the program to contribute to raising the level of medical laboratory services, the program was re-activated in early 2009. In September 2011 the name was changed from “External Quality Control Program” to “Centre for Quality Control in Laboratory Medicine”. In May 2012, the centre was moved to the new headquarters in the city of Al-Bireh.
