Efficient use of advanced operations and instruments in the chemical laboratory are vital tools to solve any laboratory problem. The course provides basic laboratory analysis methods and troubleshooting techniques for the most used instruments. Laboratory quality management according to an international standard is also important to enhance the laboratory system and environment. In addition, safety regulations are increasingly emphasizing the importance of management commitment and employee involvement in managing risks. The aim of this course is to enrich and advance the skills and knowledge of participants to understand laboratory techniques, quality laboratory requirements and the procedures of safety methods.
This course will links together an understanding of performance characteristics with an appreciation of the limitations imposed by analytical instrument design, leading to the interplay of the validation and qualification processes within quality assurance systems. The course includes unique framework of topics covers the major instrumental techniques of spectrophotometry, chromatography, capillary electrophoresis and atomic emission spectroscopy. The use of case studies, exercises and practical applications, will help the participants to develop a thorough understanding of the various concepts that underpin the different techniques.
This course will cover the major operations performed in an industrial chemical laboratory. It will describe the major equipment used in the chemical laboratory, their operations, validations, calibrations and maintenance. The course will concentrate on Standard Operation Procedures (SOP) which includes development, revisions, standards and implementations. Various Quality standards will be discussed. However, the course will concentrate on ISO 17025:2005. Finally, the course will demonstrate the safety practices and its critical impact in an industrial chemical laboratory. OSHA standards and regulations will be discussed and related videos will be shown to attendees.
In addition to the updated knowledge provided to attendees during the course period, each attendee will go back to his/her laboratory equipped with an outstanding manual that includes typical SOP’s that can be modified and used within attendee’s laboratory.
This outstanding course is a MUST for every laboratory professional. The updated knowledge and techniques covered during the 5 days of this training, will dramatically improve not only the attendee’s skills, but will also improve the performance of the attendee’s laboratory as a whole. However, if you are looking to improve the performance of your laboratory, then you have to commit yourself to pass the knowledge gained in this training to your subordinates and colleagues back in your laboratory as we will give you all the tools needed for this purpose; knowledge, skills, manual, power point slides, videos, Standard Operation Procedures (SOP), forms and standards.
Upon successful completion of this course, the delegates will be able to:
· Apply an in-depth knowledge and skills in the chemical laboratories including analytical instrumentation, analytical techniques, laboratory equipment, operational procedures, management style, method validation, quality and safety management systems
· Use the major analytical laboratory instruments and equipment and understanding their performance characteristics, capabilities, accuracies, reliabilities, speed and limitations including UV/VIS, flow injection, infrared/raman spectroscopy, ion chromatography, pH probes, and gas chromatography
· Calibrate and certify various laboratory instruments and calculate uncertainty and random error
