The goal of the Genetic Testing Reference Materials Coordination
Program (GeT-RM) is to coordinate a self-sustaining community process
to improve the availability of appropriate and characterized reference
materials for:
- Quality control (QC)
- Proficiency testing (PT)
- Test development & validation
- Research
The purpose of this program is:
- To help the genetic testing community obtain appropriate and characterized reference materials
- To facilitate and coordinate information exchange between users and providers of QC and reference materials
- To coordinate efforts for contribution, development, characterization and distribution of reference materials for genetic testing
Program name change GTQC --> GeT-RM:
We changed the name of our program from the Genetic Testing Quality Control Materials
Program (GTQC) to the Genetic Testing Reference Material Coordination Program (GeT-RM)
for three reasons:
- To clarify that these materials have not been FDA cleared or approved
- To harmonize with the efforts of other countries
- To reflect the fact that these materials can be used for purposes other than quality control
