Analytical Chemistry Practice Masterclass
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 root cause analysis, non-conformance management 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 proficiency testing, document control and equipment calibration in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Explain proficiency testing to someone who does not do the work, measured against good laboratory practice
- Take ownership of document control rather than escalating it
- Put equipment calibration on a footing they can defend to a reviewer
- Bring internal auditing into line with current good practice
