What you'll learn
- Detailed requirements for each clause of ISO/IEC 17025: 2017
- Comparison between ISO/IEC 17025: 2017 & 2005 edition
- How to implement each clause to complete lab Quality management system and get accreditation
- How to prepare your lab for accreditation according to ISO/IEC 17025: 2017
Requirements
- There is no need to be familiar with test or calibration laboratory even if you are student in a college you can apply all requirements of this document if you follow the steps explained in each clause but it will be better to be working as an analyst in a laboratory because application will be much easier
- If you have enough experience with testing will be easy for you to apply the most important point which is validation or verification of methods because you can not get accreditation without validated or verified methods
- Try to listen to each lecture many times and prepare required procedures and forms as explained in each clause to get a great benefit from this course
Description
In this training, you will not only learn the requirements but also how to prepare required documents and I kept many resources related to this. So, after you will finish the course you will be able to prepare all documents and you will not feel lost.
Do not miss this chance to learn with the best training course about ISO 17025/2017, even if you get that course online or onsite do not miss this chance because you will feel different after this course.
This training course is intended for personnel working in the field of laboratories weather testing or calibration on the requirements of ISO/IEC 17025: 2017 'General requirements for the competence of testing and calibration laboratories'. explaining all clauses of the ISO/IEC 17025: 2017 document in a straightforward and detailed way. Also how to implement and prepare all procedures and forms required for each clause to be accredited included with an overview of how to plan to prepare your lab for accreditation to become independently accredited.
The course covers also a comprehensive comparison between ISO/IEC 17025: 2005 and 2017 editions and focuses more on the new points added such as decision rules, risk-based approach, opportunities, and continual improvement including very good supporting lectures on how to use decision rules based on ILAC G8, how to quantify measurement uncertainty for sampling using nordtest guideline and the difference between method validation and verification.
The course addresses the relationship between ISO/IEC 17025 and ISO 9001; the difference between certification and accreditation, and an overview of the content of ISO/IEC 17025 followed by an in-depth examination of each clause of the standard. These include impartiality, confidentiality, organization and responsibilities, personnel, facilities and environment, equipment, traceability, purchasing, subcontracting, contract review, methods, sampling, measurement uncertainty, quality control, reporting, complaints, nonconformance handling, IT systems, records, document control, risks and opportunities, corrective action, improvement, internal audit, and management review.
The course also covers typical management system documentation structures and a roadmap of the steps required to implement the standard. The course also covers the history of ISO/IEC 17025 and the role of accreditation bodies and the process of obtaining independent recognition as well as the subject of scopes of accreditation.
This course is very important for laboratories in the field of testing and calibration that need to be accredited according to ISO/IEC 17025: 2017, if they are not accredited or accredited according to ISO/IEC 17025: 2005 or ISO/IEC 9001:2015 and need to complete technical requirements. Beginners or students and experience analysts or even technical and quality managers can use this training course because I tried to make it very simple for beginners and detailed for all.
Supporting lecture to understand the difference between method validation and verification.
Another supporting lecture for calculation of measurement uncertainty for sampling in detailes as per nordtest guideline.
Very important lecture provided also to know how to use decision rules inside your lab and to get more details about that important subject acc to ILAC guideline.
Who this course is for:
- This course is intended for any personnel working in testing or calibration laboratory accredited according to ISO/IEC 9001: 2015 or ISO/IEC 17025: 2005 edition or still not accredited
- Also intended for beginners or students who just need to create a good profile for him self in the field of laboratories
- For experience personnel in laboratories field who already prepared their labs. for accreditation

Mahmoud Abdelkhabeer, Head of veterinary drugs analysis in central food laboratory in the ministry of health, Doha, Qatar I have been working in the field of laboratories for 18 years till now. During this time I have been involved in the development and validation of many methods such as Aflatoxin in nuts, spices, and cereals using HPLC Agilent, mycotoxins in cereals with LC-MS/MS Agilent 6470, and started a new section for analysis of veterinary drugs in food of animal origins such as sulfonamides, tetracyclines, hormones, amphenicol, and quinolones. All of these methods were developed and validated according to international guidelines and accredited according to ISO 17025/2017 edition. I created a youtube channel that includes many lectures in our field and now I am trying to get more audience to my work.
