Analytical Chemistry Practice Auditing and Assurance
3 days|Delivered on request
This programme is written from the assurance side. Delegates learn to test whether corrective and preventive action and quality management systems are working as claimed, and how to evidence the conclusion. Assurance work is under scrutiny because method validation is frequently treated as paperwork rather than as evidence. Delegates leave able to work confidently with laboratory design, measurement uncertainty and accreditation preparation in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Put laboratory design on a footing they can defend to a reviewer, measured against SANAS accreditation requirements
- Make a decision about measurement uncertainty without waiting for a specialist
- Bring accreditation preparation into line with current good practice
- Spot where proficiency testing is failing before it becomes a finding
