Who Should Participate

The need to provide traceability statements and to calculate uncertainty for calibrators has its origins in the IVD Directive which was passed by the EU in 1998.

ISO standards for Clinical Laboratory Practice require laboratories to document the traceability and uncertainty of their methods. As your customers begin to respond to accrediting organizations' requests for compliance to various ISO documents they will request information on both uncertainty and traceability.

Learn from the experts at NIST who have used and taught these techniques for many years. This workshop will provide the tools needed to perform uncertainty calculations for your calibrators and controls.
