August 18, The 4th Webinar in the TNI/ELAP Series
The California State Water Resources Board has approved the new Environmental Laboratory Accreditation Program (ELAP) regulations for accrediting environmental laboratories. This free 90-minute live webinar, the fourth in a series from the International Accreditation Service (IAS), will explain the importance of QC.
Overview of Webinar When asked, many analysts say they run QC samples because they are “supposed to.” Many test methods require specific QC samples to be run without providing a corresponding explanation for doing so.
This webinar will discuss the various types of QC measurements, use of QC and how to prepare each type, explain the rationale behind the frequency of analysis, using QC as part of method validation, trending data, the implication of the results concerning the batch/system/method and any quality documentation related to QC program establishment in an ELAP laboratory.
Overview of Syllabus:
