Fundamentals of Corrective and Preventive Action
2 days|Delivered on request
Fundamentals of Corrective and Preventive Action is built for delegates who need to be useful in this area quickly. It starts at first principles and works through equipment calibration and data integrity without assuming prior specialist training. The programme exists because method validation is frequently treated as paperwork rather than as evidence, and because capability in this area is usually built on the job with no structure behind it. Delegates leave able to work confidently with corrective and preventive action, laboratory safety and technical record keeping in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Bring corrective and preventive action into line with current good practice, measured against ISO 17025
- Review laboratory safety and say plainly whether it is working
- Spot where technical record keeping is failing before it becomes a finding
- Put sample handling and chain of custody on a footing they can defend to a reviewer
