Statistical Process Control Masterclass
Laboratory and Quality Management|5 days|Classroom or live online
This advanced programme assumes delegates already work in the field. It goes past the basics into document control, sample handling and chain of custody and the judgement calls that sit outside good laboratory practice. At this level the constraint is rarely knowledge. It is judgement under pressure, which matters because quality managers are often appointed from the bench without management training. Delegates leave able to work confidently with non-conformance management, corrective and preventive action and reagent management in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Review non-conformance management and say plainly whether it is working, measured against good laboratory practice
- Put corrective and preventive action on a footing they can defend to a reviewer
- Explain reagent management to someone who does not do the work
- Bring supplier qualification into line with current good practice
