Advanced Laboratory Accreditation
5 days|Delivered on request
This advanced programme assumes delegates already work in the field. It goes past the basics into equipment calibration, sample handling and chain of custody and the judgement calls that sit outside good laboratory practice. 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 data integrity, reagent management and quality management systems in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Make a decision about data integrity without waiting for a specialist, measured against good laboratory practice
- Review reagent management and say plainly whether it is working
- Explain quality management systems to someone who does not do the work
- Take ownership of laboratory design rather than escalating it
