Why Should You Attend?
The ISO/IEC 17025 Lead Implementer training course equips participants with the specialized expertise required to guide laboratories in meeting the standard’s requirements through the implementation of a quality control system based on ISO/IEC 17025. Throughout this program, attendees will develop a thorough understanding of Laboratory Management System (LMS) best practices in testing and calibration environments, enabling the production of reliable measurement results and facilitating the path toward accreditation and international recognition.

Upon mastering the essential concepts of Laboratory Management Systems, participants may sit for the examination and apply for the “PECB Certified ISO/IEC 17025 Lead Implementer” credential. This certification demonstrates practical knowledge and professional capability to implement ISO/IEC 17025 effectively within a laboratory setting.

Who Should Attend?

• Professionals involved in testing and calibration laboratories

• Managers or consultants seeking to master Laboratory Management System implementation

• Laboratory technicians responsible for maintaining conformance with testing and calibration laboratory accreditation requirements

• Individuals responsible for supporting testing and calibration laboratory operations

• Technical experts preparing for testing and calibration laboratory competence assessment

Learning Objectives
Upon completing this training course, participants will be able to:

• Recognize the correlation between ISO/IEC 17025 and other relevant standards and regulatory frameworks

• Master the concepts, approaches, methods, and techniques employed in the implementation and effective management of a Laboratory Management System (LMS)

• Interpret ISO/IEC 17025 requirements within the specific context of the laboratory

• Support a laboratory in performing testing and other operational activities effectively

• Acquire the expertise to advise a laboratory on implementing Laboratory Management System best practices

Educational Approach
