The society offers various resources, programs, and initiatives aimed at supporting the professional growth of its members. These include grants, scholarships, mentorship programs, and career development opportunities.

Promoting Analytical Chemistry Education

IACS actively promotes the importance of analytical chemistry education and encourages the development and implementation of educational programs to cultivate the next generation of analytical chemists in Israel

The society is affiliated with the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) and supports international collaboration, scientific standards, and best practices in the field.

Membership in IACS is open to anyone interested in analytical chemistry — including academic researchers, industry scientists, students, and professionals from diverse sectors such as environmental science, forensics, pharmaceuticals, and materials engineering.

One of IACS’s key initiatives is the organization of Isranalytica, a renowned international conference series that serves as a hub for presenting new research, exchanging ideas, and building professional connections. These events also play a vital role in raising public awareness and understanding of analytical chemistry.

In addition to its scientific events, IACS actively supports education and professional development.
