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 data integrity and laboratory design from the position of someone who must review, approve and answer for the output. Managers carry this because quality managers are often appointed from the bench without management training, and the accountability does not delegate cleanly. Delegates leave able to work confidently with document control, method validation and technical record keeping in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Explain document control to someone who does not do the work, measured against ISO 9001
- Spot where method validation is failing before it becomes a finding
- Put technical record keeping on a footing they can defend to a reviewer
- Improve supplier qualification within their own organisation
