Demonstrating PFAS Excellence Through a Quality Assurance Mindset

The methods for PFAS testing continue to evolve and testing laboratories are expected to keep pace with that evolution.

In addition, enforceable regulations are expected to soon be the norm rather than an anomaly. As a result, laboratories are taxed with maintaining and/or adding to their scope of accreditation for PFAS analysis. We will explore how proficiency testing and QC samples can aid in validating your processes, demonstrating analyst competency, adding to your scope of accreditation, and documenting your commitment to quality for the PFAS methods.

Key Learning Topics:

• Improve data robustness

• Add to your lab’s scope of accreditation

• Demonstrate analyst competency

Who should attend:

• PFAS Program Managers

• Laboratory Managers

• Analytical Scientists

• Quality Assurance Managers
