Quality Management Systems Auditing and Assurance
3 days|Delivered on request
This programme is written from the assurance side. Delegates learn to test whether accreditation preparation and non-conformance management are working as claimed, and how to evidence the conclusion. Assurance work is under scrutiny because quality managers are often appointed from the bench without management training. Delegates leave able to work confidently with corrective and preventive action, proficiency testing and method validation in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Review corrective and preventive action and say plainly whether it is working, measured against good laboratory practice
- Put proficiency testing on a footing they can defend to a reviewer
- Make a decision about method validation without waiting for a specialist
