This course provides an information that is useful and defensible, legally and technically to your Laboratory staff. Laboratory quality control and assessment of chemical measurement data makes good professional, business sense, risk reduction, professionally motivated staff and confidence in the lab data. This course will examine the requirements and look at how analysts might set about determining the uncertainty of measurement of their tests.

The delegates will achieve the following objectives:

• A thorough understanding of the factors which could influence the results of lab analyses
• The factors, which are important for good laboratory operations
• The use of statistical techniques to estimate the uncertainty in measurements
• Update knowledge and skills of participants for understanding laboratory technics
• How to apply quality standards, and develop the technical, and methods in the lab

All Laboratory staff, Managers, Supervisors, Chemists and Technicians
