Many laboratories have successfully developed and implemented a functional quality management system that not only complies with the management and technical requirements of ISO/IEC 17025:2005 but also meets their needs.
Some are still struggling to get accredited and even those already accredited still have issues as evidenced by the number of non-conformances cited during the subsequent biannual audits.
Have the rules changed? What are the new requirements of ISO/IEC 17015:2017? How does the new standard impact laboratories that are already accredited and how do you ensure staff adherence and ongoing compliance to minimize corrective actions arising from accreditation audits?
Why should you Attend:
The new version of ISO/IEC 17025 was released on November 19, 2017. Is everything old or new again? What are the new requirements that need to be addressed? This webinar will discuss the changes in the standard and their impact on your QMS.
This is the 1st of 3 parts to address the structure and requirements of the new standard. It will provide you with an overview of the salient differences and similarities between the old and the new standard.
The subsequent webinars will go into more depth on what is required to meet the requirements of each of the elements.
