Method Validation: Tools and Techniques
3 days|Delivered on request
This is a hands-on programme. Delegates spend most of the time working through laboratory design and laboratory safety on live scenarios rather than listening to theory about them. The practical emphasis is deliberate: quality managers are often appointed from the bench without management training, and reading about the method has repeatedly proved insufficient. Delegates leave able to work confidently with sample handling and chain of custody, technical record keeping and corrective and preventive action in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Spot where sample handling and chain of custody is failing before it becomes a finding, measured against SANAS accreditation requirements
- Explain technical record keeping to someone who does not do the work
- Bring corrective and preventive action into line with current good practice
- Take ownership of internal auditing rather than escalating it
