GAGE CALIBRATION METHODS &
HANDS-ON WORKSHOP
 This course provides the latest information on how to meet the compliance
requirements for measurement systems. Calibration concepts and
theory are combined with hands-on training including an overview
of terminology, audits, hands-on calibration and calibration
requirements with emphasis on ISO 10012, ANSI Z540-1, ISO 17025,
ISO 9001:2000 and ISO/TS 16949. Workers will learn how to develop and document a
calibration and measurement assurance program and assess capabilities.
This course also addresses the use of Standard Reference Materials (SRMs) in a calibration and
measurement system. Includes hands-on exercises. This course is intended for those who have a
documented quality system (ISO-9000, QS-9000, GMP, GLP). This course is based on ISO-10012:2003.
Additional materials may include ISO/IEC Guide 17025 and ANSI/NCSL Z540-1-1994; Measurement
Systems Analysis (MSA).
