The Eurachem Education and Training Working Group invites you to participate in an international workshop on internal quality control to be held in Berlin on Wednesday 10 to Thursday 11 October 2012. The event will be hosted by the German member of Eurachem, EUROLAB Germany. The workshop will cover analytical results from a range of sectors and disciplines including chemical analysis, testing, laboratory medicine and microbiology. The main focus will be on internal quality control performed in the laboratory for the continuous monitoring of operations and results of measurements, in order to decide whether results are reliable enough to be released. The workshop will include invited lectures, short communications, posters and break-out sessions. A training course on internal quality control will be held at the same venue the day before the workshop, Tuesday 9 October.
