ISO/IEC 17025 Training Common Questions

Which ISO/IEC 17025 course is best for a beginner?

Foundation Training is the best starting point for newcomers. This four-hour course introduces ISO/IEC 17025 requirements, laboratory-management principles, risk-based thinking and the accreditation process without the depth of the role-specific professional courses.

Which course should I take if I will implement or maintain the laboratory management system?

Choose Implementer Training if you will establish, document, implement or maintain the laboratory management system or coordinate preparation for accreditation.

It provides more implementation depth, practical guidance and sample documents than Foundation Training.

How does ISO/IEC 17025 Auditor Training differ from Lead Auditor Training?

Auditor Training prepares learners to conduct internal laboratory audits and participate as effective audit-team members.

Lead Auditor Training adds the skills needed to plan and lead audits, manage audit teams and oversee an audit program.

Who benefits from ISO/IEC 17025 training?

The courses are relevant to testing and calibration laboratory managers, quality managers, technical managers, laboratory personnel, implementation teams, internal auditors, consultants and professionals preparing laboratories for accreditation.

Will completing a course accredit my laboratory?

No training course can itself accredit a laboratory. The training develops the knowledge needed to implement, maintain or audit an ISO/IEC 17025 system and prepare for assessment.

Laboratory accreditation is granted separately by an accreditation body after evaluating the laboratory's management system and technical competence.

Does ISO/IEC 17025 training include measurement uncertainty?

Yes. The curriculum addresses measurement uncertainty as part of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratory competence.

Implementer, Auditor and Lead Auditor Training examine its application and evaluation in greater depth than Foundation Training.

How does ISO/IEC 17025 differ from ISO 9001?

ISO/IEC 17025 is specifically designed for testing and calibration laboratories and addresses both management-system requirements and technical competence.

ISO 9001 is a general quality-management standard used across industries and does not establish laboratory-specific competence requirements.

Which ISO/IEC 17025 certificates carry the Exemplar Global logo?

The Auditor and Lead Auditor courses award a Certificate of Attainment bearing the Exemplar Global logo after successful completion of the course and assessment.

Both provide a pathway toward relevant Exemplar Global personnel certification. Certificates for all four courses bear the IACET accreditation mark.

Do you offer a money-back guarantee?

Yes. All courses come with a 30-day money-back guarantee. If you are not satisfied and have not completed the course, you can request a full refund with no questions asked.

How long do I have access to the course?

Learners receive up to three months of course access from enrollment. Access ends when the course is successfully completed. Extensions are available upon request for an additional fee.

If the buyer does not enroll the learner during purchase, the course manager has up to 12 months to enroll them.
