ISO 17025 Implementation for Small and Medium Enterprises

Laboratory and Quality Management|3 days|Classroom or live online

ISO 17025 Implementation for Small and Medium Enterprises takes the discipline and works it through the constraints of this operating context, including sample handling and chain of custody, internal auditing and the compliance obligations that come with it. The sector framing is necessary because an accreditation finding can stop a laboratory trading in a way no other quality failure does, and generic training rarely survives contact with the local rules. Delegates leave able to work confidently with proficiency testing, reagent management and corrective and preventive action in their own organisation.

What delegates leave able to do

Bring proficiency testing into line with current good practice, measured against ISO 17025
Spot where reagent management is failing before it becomes a finding
