Advanced Document Control
Laboratory and Quality Management|5 days|Classroom or live online
This advanced programme assumes delegates already work in the field. It goes past the basics into non-conformance management, proficiency testing and the judgement calls that sit outside SANAS accreditation requirements. At this level the constraint is rarely knowledge. It is judgement under pressure, which matters because method validation is frequently treated as paperwork rather than as evidence. Delegates leave able to work confidently with laboratory safety, method validation and technical record keeping in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Spot where laboratory safety is failing before it becomes a finding, measured against SANAS accreditation requirements
- Bring method validation into line with current good practice
- Explain technical record keeping to someone who does not do the work
- Review data integrity and say plainly whether it is working
