Managing Laboratory Internal Auditing
3 days|Delivered on request
This programme is for the person accountable for the work rather than the person doing it. It covers proficiency testing and technical record keeping from the position of someone who must review, approve and answer for the output. Managers carry this because an accreditation finding can stop a laboratory trading in a way no other quality failure does, and the accountability does not delegate cleanly. Delegates leave able to work confidently with supplier qualification, document control and method validation in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Take ownership of supplier qualification rather than escalating it, measured against SANAS accreditation requirements
- Review document control and say plainly whether it is working
- Explain method validation to someone who does not do the work
- Bring non-conformance management into line with current good practice
