Leaflet - Investigating poor performance in proficiency testing (2019)
NOTE: This version of the Information Leaflet "Investigating poor performance in proficiency testing" has been superseded by a later edition, published in 2022. The latest edition can be found here.
Content
A laboratory will occasionally have a poor performance in a PT scheme. When this occurs, the laboratory should acknowledge it, carry out an investigation and document a review of possible causes, even if it decides not to take any specific action. This leaflet, prepared by the EURACHEM Proficiency Testing Working Group, gives advice for laboratories on how to best address such events. The leaflet is currently available in English. Further translations will be published when available.
