Measurement Uncertainty Training

Course Overview:

Our Measurement Uncertainty Training course is perfect for calibration personnel and provides great knowledge for testing laboratories. This 2 day course covers the basic understanding of uncertainty as it applies to calibration, specifically geared towards understanding the Uncertainty Budget that is a required parameter in an ISO 17025:2017 Scope of Accreditation. Students will learn to understand and prepare a basic sample uncertainty budget through lecture and exercises. Students will learn to understand and prepare a basic sample uncertainty budget through lecture and exercises. A capstone exercise is included for the student to be able to work out an uncertainty budget by hand using provided information and a pre-prepared template then compared to an already validated example.

Who Should Attend?

This course was designed for those that have little to no exposure to Measurement Uncertainty. It is specifically geared toward generating CMC uncertainty budgets that are required for each parameter in an ISO 17025:2017 Scope of Accreditation as well as those required for specific measurement equipment calibration.
