Measurements of Accuracy, Precision and Control Charts

WEB-EX INTERNET TRAINING AGENDA

Who should participate: This one-hour course is directed toward laboratory directors, managers, analysts, quality control officers, and operators who oversee or perform laboratory or field measurements, and particularly those who may be called upon to defend scientific data. This course will benefit those specifically who generate review and release data, based upon accuracy and precision performance criteria.

Learning objectives: Attendees will learn how to defend data based upon generation of data of known accuracy and precision. You will understand the difference between the various quality control samples, and ways to determine accuracy and precision. You will learn how to construct control charts, and recognize data trends and shifts.

Course Description:
The course takes you through detailed definitions of samples and activities pertaining to accuracy, precision, and control charts. Work sets will show you how to determine accuracy and precision, and live sample sets will walk you through the process of generating control charts. The importance of control charts, shifts and trends will be explained.
