Organised by Eurachem colleagues in the Czech Republic, the workshop will discuss experience with the revised ISO 17025:2017, present current Eurachem activities in the field of analytical QA, and discuss future challenges from both research and practical perspectives.
The EEE-PT Working Group (EA-Eurolab-Eurachem) are pleased to publish the latest edition of their popular guidance on Selection, Use and Interpretation of Proficiency Testing (PT) Schemes.
This third edition brings the guide up to date with standards and guidance documents that have been revised and developed since the second edition was released in 2011. In particular it aligns the guide with ISO 13528:2015 and with current guidance on developing a PT participation strategy and selecting the most appropriate PT schemes.
