The Association of Swiss Human Preparators (VSHP / ASPH / ASPU) is the only organisation in Switzerland that represents the interests of our profession in the three disciplines of anatomy, pathology and forensic medicine.

​

The association also assumes responsibility for the training of future human dissectors in Switzerland, thereby guaranteeing a high professional standard. It specifies the teaching content and imparts practical knowledge through workshops and co-operation with professional institutions in Switzerland and abroad. The association is also responsible for organising, conducting and evaluating the examination for the federal certificate. 

​

Its other tasks include the continuous professional development of human preparators and support for their professional exchange in a spirit of solidarity.
