Course Overview
ISO 17025, Uncertainty measurement, Testing laboratory , Organization structure, International practice
"This course contains the use of artificial intelligence."
All technical interpretations, uncertainty calculations, and laboratory practices are based on real ISO/IEC 17025 accredited laboratory experience and internationally accepted guidelines.
This Master Course on ISO/IEC 17025 and Measurement Uncertainty is designed to provide engineers, laboratory professionals, quality managers, and auditors with a clear, practical, and audit-ready understanding of laboratory competence requirements and uncertainty evaluation.
The course explains how ISO/IEC 17025 accredited testing and calibration laboratories operate in real scenarios, with strong focus on measurement uncertainty as per GUM principles. You will learn how laboratories identify sources of uncertainty, perform Type A and Type B evaluations, select appropriate probability distributions, calculate combined and expanded uncertainty, and correctly report results as expected by accreditation bodies such as NABL and other international assessors.
Through step-by-step explanations and real laboratory examples, the course covers uncertainty calculations for voltage, current, power, time, energy, and electrical measurements, including the influence of instrument accuracy, calibration certificates, resolution, repeatability, environmental conditions, and test setup. Practical uncertainty budgets are developed and explained exactly as used in accredited laboratories and audit situations.
The training also explains how ISO/IEC 17025 requirements are applied in daily laboratory operations, including method selection, technical records, validity of results, control of data, reporting of results, and audit preparation, with special emphasis on how measurement uncertainty supports result validity and technical credibility.
This course is ideal for test engineers, calibration engineers, laboratory managers, quality professionals, auditors, compliance engineers, and engineering students who want practical, real-world skills, not just theoretical knowledge.
By the end of this course, you will be able to confidently calculate and defend uncertainty budgets, understand assessor expectations, review ISO/IEC 17025 compliant reports, and apply uncertainty measurement correctly in accredited laboratory environments.
Additional lectures related to other international standards and advanced laboratory topics are also available as part of the extended learning series.
