SLMTA (Enhancing Lab Monitoring Towards Certification) is a very effective tool … innovation, that aids to develop reliable laboratories that support
the values of quality guarantee. It likewise constructs ability of the staff. As well as also it brings the labs
to the levels of international criteria So SLMTA ultimately it enhances the top quality of services to our people. In Uganda, SLMTA

in these various laboratories.Uganda was one of the earliest adopters of
this program. We started it in 2010. Via this training, we’ve entailed over 150 research laboratories and also out of these 150 laboratories, due to this training, we’ve had actually 34 obtain certified. SLMTA has really altered the landscape of the laboratory industry
