Practical ISO 17025 Implementation

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

This is a hands-on programme. Delegates spend most of the time working through quality management systems and accreditation preparation on live scenarios rather than listening to theory about them. The practical emphasis is deliberate: method validation is frequently treated as paperwork rather than as evidence, and reading about the method has repeatedly proved insufficient. Delegates leave able to work confidently with supplier qualification, reagent management and document control in their own organisation.

What delegates leave able to do

Put supplier qualification on a footing they can defend to a reviewer, measured against ISO 17025
Explain reagent management to someone who does not do the work
Make a decision about document control without waiting for a specialist
Take ownership of equipment calibration rather than escalating it
