This training program will discuss the concept and application of uncertainty of measurement (MU) as required by ISO/IEC Standard 17025:2005 for laboratory accreditation, from a practical microbiological perspective, using unambiguous language and useful examples.
What is needed to meet the ISO/IEC Standard 17025:2005 requirements?
What data should be collected?
How to analyze the data?
This course will address these questions and discuss a practical step by step approach specifically applicable to microbiology.
Why Should You Attend:
Laboratories are often confused about the uncertainty of measurement (MU). Further ambiguity on the subject arises as to:What is needed to meet the ISO/IEC Standard 17025:2005 requirements?
What data should be collected?
How to analyze the data?
This course will address these questions and discuss a practical step by step approach specifically applicable to microbiology.
Learning Objectives:
Upon completion of this session, attendees will learn:- the significance of uncertainty of measurement (MU)
