PECB Certified ISO/IEC 17025 Lead Implementer Training

Course Description

PECB Certified ISO/IEC 17025 Lead Implementer Training develops practical capability to implement a laboratory management system that demonstrates impartiality, competence, valid methods, traceability, reliable results, and improvement. The learning path begins with lms context, scope, impartiality, confidentiality, leadership, and planning and organization, personnel, facilities, equipment, traceability, and suppliers, connecting PECB and ISO requirements with governance, evidence, stakeholder decisions, and measurable acceptance.

Applied work is framed around a testing or calibration laboratory preparing for accreditation while improving technical and management controls. Learners then progress through methods, validation, sampling, item handling, records, and validity and complaints, nonconforming work, audit, review, action, and accreditation, producing laboratory management-system charter, laboratory resource and competence framework, laboratory process-control evidence library, and laboratory accreditation-readiness report.

By completion, participants can interpret applicable requirements, perform implementation, audit, assessment, or foundation activities, evaluate evidence, communicate supported conclusions, and hand over clear improvement actions with ownership and follow-up.
