Mathematically prove the accuracy of your laboratory's analytical results; ensure the international validity of your methods. Having a calibrated instrument or an experienced technician does not automatically mean the analytical result is absolutely correct. The most critical technical requirement of the ISO 17025 standard—and the primary focus of auditors—is this question: Does the method you are using actually work as intended? Designed by our expert instructors and consultants, this training clarifies the two most frequently confused concepts in the laboratory world. You will learn the "Method Verification" processes required when implementing an official, ready-made standard (such as EPA, ASTM, or ISO) in your lab for the first time. Furthermore, you will master the "Method Validation" parameters needed to scientifically prove that a newly developed (in-house) or modified analytical method is fit for its intended purpose. Master critical calculations such as Linearity, Limits of Detection/Quantification (LOD/LOQ), Precision, Accuracy (Recovery), and Robustness through practical examples, rendering your laboratory's quality indisputable.
