Microbiological Testing for Managers
3 days|Delivered on request
This programme is for the person accountable for the work rather than the person doing it. It covers accreditation preparation and supplier qualification from the position of someone who must review, approve and answer for the output. Managers carry this because method validation is frequently treated as paperwork rather than as evidence, and the accountability does not delegate cleanly. Delegates leave able to work confidently with method validation, root cause analysis and technical record keeping in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Improve method validation within their own organisation, measured against ISO 9001
- Explain root cause analysis to someone who does not do the work
- Take ownership of technical record keeping rather than escalating it
- Bring laboratory design into line with current good practice
