ISO 17025 Implementation for Managers
3 days|Delivered on request
This programme is for the person accountable for the work rather than the person doing it. It covers internal auditing and technical record keeping 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 proficiency testing, equipment calibration and accreditation preparation in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Review proficiency testing and say plainly whether it is working, measured against good laboratory practice
- Explain equipment calibration to someone who does not do the work
- Bring accreditation preparation into line with current good practice
- Spot where root cause analysis is failing before it becomes a finding
