Document Control for Managers
Laboratory and Quality Management|3 days|Classroom or live online
This programme is for the person accountable for the work rather than the person doing it. It covers laboratory safety and quality management systems from the position of someone who must review, approve and answer for the output. Managers carry this because method validation is frequently treated as paperwork rather than as evidence, and the accountability does not delegate cleanly. Delegates leave able to work confidently with method validation, corrective and preventive action and reagent management in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Take ownership of method validation rather than escalating it, measured against good laboratory practice
- Explain corrective and preventive action to someone who does not do the work
- Make a decision about reagent management without waiting for a specialist
- Bring measurement uncertainty into line with current good practice
