Course Code: maximocalibration
Duration: 14 hours
Prerequisites:
  • Basic understanding of measurement and testing instruments
  • Familiarity with quality control processes and calibration standards

Audience

  • Quality control managers
  • Calibration technicians
  • Maintenance planners
Overview:

Calibration is the process of configuring an instrument or device to provide a result for a sample within an acceptable range. A scheduler refers to a system or software designed to manage and organize calibration activities.

This instructor-led, live training (online or onsite) is aimed at beginner-level to intermediate-level quality control managers who wish to manage the calibration of measurement and testing instruments, ensuring accuracy, reliability, and compliance with regulatory standards.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

  • Understand the importance of calibration management.
  • Create and apply data sheet templates for documenting instrument specifications, tolerance levels, and input range limits. 
  • Utilize software tools to automatically generate work orders based on calibration schedules, ensuring timely calibration of assets.
  • Implement revision control for updating work plan information and maintain historical records of calibration measurements and procedures.

Format of the Course

  • Interactive lecture and discussion.
  • Lots of exercises and practice.
  • Hands-on implementation in a live-lab environment.
