Fundamentals of Laboratory Internal Auditing
2 days|Delivered on request
Fundamentals of Laboratory Internal Auditing is built for delegates who need to be useful in this area quickly. It starts at first principles and works through equipment calibration and proficiency testing without assuming prior specialist training. The programme exists because quality managers are often appointed from the bench without management training, and because capability in this area is usually built on the job with no structure behind it. Delegates leave able to work confidently with sample handling and chain of custody, document control and non-conformance management in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Make a decision about sample handling and chain of custody without waiting for a specialist, measured against ISO 9001
- Take ownership of document control rather than escalating it
- Review non-conformance management and say plainly whether it is working
- Put quality management systems on a footing they can defend to a reviewer
