Course Description
The course begins with a broad overview of the Metrology discipline, and defines some common terms. It next introduces the statistical concepts that form the cornerstones of modern metrology and calibration. The students are then exposed to statistical management concepts such as Statistical Process Control (SPC) and the Measurement Assurance Process (MAP). The course then reviews in considerable depth the requirements imposed by ISO standard 17025. Its impact on all aspects of calibration laboratory management is analyzed clause by clause. The final sections of the course deal with laboratory facilities, equipment and calibration logistics, as well as reporting requirements, ESD control, equipment handing and safety considerations.
