Our Member Portal

COLA Inc. Members have FREE access to the tools and resources needed to run an efficient laboratory and provide quality patient care

Our Member portal website, called COLAcentral, is designed to provide a resource where laboratory professionals can update their lab profile, view communications, see survey results, prepare for upcoming surveys and receive support for a broad range of laboratory needs.

Features

We’ve packed COLAcentral with features that our clients need to manage compliance activities throughout the Accreditation Life Cycle. From online document storage to real-time compliance survey results, our system stands out from the rest.

Compliance Record Management

Keeping track of all the required documentation for lab accreditation was once a difficult and taxing process. Now, COLA Inc. lab directors can view, upload, and track all COLA Inc. lab documents in one place.
