About the Advanced Good Laboratory Practice Course

Time Training Center's 5-day (30 hours) Advanced GLP course covers Uncertainty Measurement, Data & Method Validation, and SPC, aligned with ISO/IEC 17025.  ​It equips participants with the knowledge to implement effective quality management systems and meet global regulatory expectations in analytical laboratories.​

Our course explores the full spectrum of GLP elements, including laboratory organization, personnel qualifications, and equipment maintenance. A core component focuses on measurement uncertainty, teaching attendees how to identify sources, quantify them accurately, and calculate combined and expanded uncertainty in analytical procedures. You can also gain hands-on insight into statistical process control (SPC) for laboratory performance monitoring and continuous quality improvement.

Through a mix of theory and practical applications, this course ensures you will be proficient in method validation techniques and fully prepared to align your laboratory practices with ISO 17025 requirements. This leads to enhanced regulatory compliance and improved decision-making based on validated and traceable data, crucial for reliable laboratory operations.

Advanced Good Laboratory Practice Course Objectives

​By the end of this Advanced GLP: Uncertainty Measurement, Data Validation, Method Validation & Statistical Process Control (SPC) in Analytical Laboratory according to ISO 17025 course, participants will be able to:​

• Understand the framework of quality assurance in laboratories and the significance of implementing the ISO/IEC 17025 standard.
• Define Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) and explain its relevance to modern laboratories and technology transfer.
• Evaluate the financial and operational impact of non-compliance with GLP.
• Identify and interpret GLP standards and international regulations (OECD, USA, Canada, Europe, Japan) that govern laboratory operations.
• Differentiate between various regulatory systems, particularly the USA and OECD GLP frameworks, and determine their applicability to their own laboratories.
• Recognize and address critical compliance issues across GLP components, including organization, personnel, facilities, equipment, testing procedures, controls, documentation, and reporting.
• Understand the concepts of measurement uncertainty, including sources, estimation processes, and how to conduct uncertainty analysis.
• Apply techniques for calculating combined and expanded uncertainty, and follow best practices for reporting measurement uncertainty.
• Implement statistical process control (SPC) to monitor and enhance laboratory process stability and capability.
• Conduct method validation in accordance with ISO/IEC 17025 requirements and apply appropriate data validation techniques.
