Laboratory Information Management Systems (LIMS)
This programme helps laboratories select, implement and use information management systems to improve data flow and integrity. Delegates examine sample tracking, workflow configuration, results management and integration with instruments. The course also considers data security, audit trails and the change from paper based records.

Laboratory Quality Management Systems and ISO/IEC 17025 Accreditation
This programme prepares laboratory managers and quality staff to build, document and maintain a management system that meets the requirements of ISO/IEC 17025. Participants examine competence, impartiality and consistent operation of testing and calibration laboratories, and learn how to prepare for a successful accreditation assessment. Practical sessions cover document control, corrective action and the transition from internal quality goals to formal recognition.
Laboratory Safety and Biosafety Management
This course equips laboratory personnel to identify, assess and control the physical, chemical and biological hazards found in a working laboratory. Delegates study biosafety levels, containment practices and the safe handling of infectious agents alongside general occupational safety duties. The training links regulatory expectations to day to day behaviour on the bench.
Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) for Regulated Studies
This programme explains the principles of Good Laboratory Practice as applied to non clinical health and environmental safety studies. Participants learn how GLP governs study conduct, data integrity, facilities and personnel responsibilities. The course helps laboratories align their practices with the expectations of regulatory bodies and monitoring authorities.
