Advanced Laboratory Quality Management
5 days|Delivered on request
This advanced programme assumes delegates already work in the field. It goes past the basics into sample handling and chain of custody, measurement uncertainty and the judgement calls that sit outside ISO 9001. 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 method validation, non-conformance management and laboratory safety in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Bring method validation into line with current good practice, measured against ISO 9001
- Take ownership of non-conformance management rather than escalating it
- Review laboratory safety and say plainly whether it is working
- Explain root cause analysis to someone who does not do the work
