Laboratory Accreditation in the Public Sector
3 days|Delivered on request
Laboratory Accreditation in the Public Sector takes the discipline and works it through the constraints of this operating context, including proficiency testing, non-conformance management and the compliance obligations that come with it. The sector framing is necessary because method validation is frequently treated as paperwork rather than as evidence, and generic training rarely survives contact with the local rules. Delegates leave able to work confidently with quality management systems, laboratory safety and supplier qualification in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Put quality management systems on a footing they can defend to a reviewer, measured against SANAS accreditation requirements
- Explain laboratory safety to someone who does not do the work
