Good Laboratory Practice 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 equipment calibration and sample handling and chain of custody from the position of someone who must review, approve and answer for the output. Managers carry this because an accreditation finding can stop a laboratory trading in a way no other quality failure does, and the accountability does not delegate cleanly. Delegates leave able to work confidently with corrective and preventive action, internal auditing and quality management systems in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Review corrective and preventive action and say plainly whether it is working, measured against SANAS accreditation requirements
- Improve internal auditing within their own organisation
- Make a decision about quality management systems without waiting for a specialist
- Bring accreditation preparation into line with current good practice
