Laboratory accreditation forum

A new dedicated forum will encourage discussion between food testing laboratories on all issues relating to laboratory accreditation. By providing laboratory managers and technical staff with direct access to relevant expertise, and allowing them to discuss noncompetitive issues in a neutral environment, the forum will help foster their continuing professional development and reinforce adoption of best practice. It will take the format of seminars with presentations and discussion sessions with invited experts, addressing all aspects of laboratory accreditation and related subjects. Appropriate trade displays will be used to demonstrate new equipment and systems.

The forum is open to microbiology and chemistry laboratories, both small and large, within food companies, the contract analysis sector, and enforcement. It will cover topics such as national and international standards, method validation, novel technologies, calibration, quality control and assurance, laboratory management and auditing. Please contact us for further information or to register interest.
