Welcome to CAEAL Online Training!

CAEAL Training Services is committed to delivering training that supports competence, quality and continuous improvement in member laboratories.  CAEAL Online Training has been developed to make courses more accessible to members.  Training participants can undertake learning wherever and whenever they may arrange Internet access, at any time of day.  Sessions start every two weeks for available courses.  Click on each course title below for its table of contents (modules) and the recommended time commitment to complete the course.  Recommendations are based on the amount of time anticipated in reading the material, processing the information and responding to the questions in the discussion forum.  Each course is open to registered participants to complete in either two weeks (shorter courses) or four weeks (longer courses).

The following courses are available online :

Care and Feeding of a Laboratory Quality System
For laboratory staff who operate a laboratory quality system and conduct testing, calibration or laboratory support activities. Those who manage laboratories or laboratory quality systems. This course provides information to better manage and implement an ISO/IEC 17025-conformant quality system. This course will require approximately 32 hours of participant time over four weeks to complete.
Explain Measurement Uncertainty to my Clients
For regulatory personnel and users of laboratory data. Understanding measurement uncertainty when receiving or examining laboratory data. This course will require approximately 8 hours of participant time over two weeks to complete. This course will require approximately 8 hours of participant time over two weeks to complete.
Internal Calibration for Accredited Laboratories
For testing laboratory staff that propagate uncertainties from reference devices to working measurement devices within their own laboratories in temperature, mass and volume measurements. To demonstrate traceability of measurement within environmental testing. Not for calibration laboratory staff. This course will require approximately 16 hours of participant time over two weeks to complete.
Managing Laboratory Accreditation
For laboratory managers and leaders. Lab clients and regulators now demand formal demonstration of competence from laboratories involved in most aspects of life science testing. To better understand the necessity, the costs, the benefits, and the ramifications of implementing a quality system. Learn how to obtain and retain laboratory accreditation. This course will require approximately 16 hours of participant time over two weeks to complete.
Non-Conformances and Root Cause Analysis
For laboratory staff who participate in the operation of the laboratory quality system: either in the conduct of testing or calibration, or in laboratory support activities. This course will require approximately 16 hours of participant time over two weeks to complete.
Understanding ISO/IEC 17025
Laboratories in Canada are increasingly required to be accredited in order to meet regulator competence requirements. The Canadian Association for Environmental Analytical Laboratories (CAEAL) is one body that provides these services to laboratories. This course will provide information to laboratory statt seeking ways to better understand the requirements behind ISO/IEC 17025-the standard used in laboratories.
