Statistical Process Control Auditing and Assurance
3 days|Delivered on request
This programme is written from the assurance side. Delegates learn to test whether proficiency testing and method validation are working as claimed, and how to evidence the conclusion. Assurance work is under scrutiny because an accreditation finding can stop a laboratory trading in a way no other quality failure does. Delegates leave able to work confidently with measurement uncertainty, supplier qualification and sample handling and chain of custody in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Review measurement uncertainty and say plainly whether it is working, measured against ISO 9001
- Take ownership of supplier qualification rather than escalating it
- Make a decision about sample handling and chain of custody without waiting for a specialist
- Improve corrective and preventive action within their own organisation
