Laboratory Information Management: Tools and Techniques

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

This is a hands-on programme. Delegates spend most of the time working through measurement uncertainty and proficiency testing on live scenarios rather than listening to theory about them. The practical emphasis is deliberate: an accreditation finding can stop a laboratory trading in a way no other quality failure does, and reading about the method has repeatedly proved insufficient. Delegates leave able to work confidently with internal auditing, accreditation preparation and supplier qualification in their own organisation.

What delegates leave able to do

Explain internal auditing to someone who does not do the work, measured against good laboratory practice
Spot where accreditation preparation is failing before it becomes a finding
Make a decision about supplier qualification without waiting for a specialist
Take ownership of data integrity rather than escalating it
