Statistical Process Control for Managers
Laboratory and Quality Management|3 days|Classroom or live online
This programme is for the person accountable for the work rather than the person doing it. It covers accreditation preparation and sample handling and chain of custody from the position of someone who must review, approve and answer for the output. Managers carry this because quality managers are often appointed from the bench without management training, and the accountability does not delegate cleanly. Delegates leave able to work confidently with equipment calibration, laboratory design and supplier qualification in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Make a decision about equipment calibration without waiting for a specialist, measured against SANAS accreditation requirements
- Put laboratory design on a footing they can defend to a reviewer
- Review supplier qualification and say plainly whether it is working
- Bring data integrity into line with current good practice
