Conformity Assessment – Basic Principles are the Key

ANAB Webinar – Wednesday, March 29, 2023 – 2:00pm to 3:00pm Eastern

 

Please join us for a short webinar where you will see there are universal concepts of conformity assessment; what ANAB calls the 4-3-3 Conformity Assessment ParadigmTM. With it you can navigate the entire field of conformity assessment, quickly understand new conformity assessment situations and opportunities, explain conformity assessment activities and solutions, and catch the nuances of ISO/IEC 17000 series standards.

 

Here’s what’s being said about those who have learned the 4-3-3 Conformity Assessment ParadigmTM:

“I feel like I actually understand conformity assessment.”

“I went from an “acceptable” level of understanding to where I could explain it to someone else with confidence.”

“I was in 17065 training . . . and was piecing it all together much faster thanks to the 4-3-3 method.”

Summary

Uncertainty and changes in everyday life have radically impacted us all during the past few years. While we have had to change the overall approach regarding where, when, and sometimes how we work, what hasn’t changed is the need to work competently, consistently, and impartially. Many organizations have navigated the uncertainty and changes seamlessly and have continued to thrive. Some might ask, how? How, in the face of these major challenges, changes, and uncertainty, did they do it? Through resilience. Many organizations know they need to build resilience, as it provides the ability to bounce back and grow in the face of adversity. But how do we build and foster organizational resilience? One way is through Accreditation! This webinar will define organizational resilience, present a few elements of resilience and qualities of being resilient, as well as provide information on how accreditation can provide a foundation upon which to build and foster organizational resilience.

 

Key Takeaways

  • Learn about individual and organizational resilience
  • Acquire information regarding the elements and qualities of resilience
  • Understand how accreditation is the foundation upon which organizations can build and foster resilience
  • See how resilience helps maintain competence and promotes confidence

Quality and Risk in the Cannabis Supply Chain.

Link to Zoom Recording

Description:

The quality of cannabis products is impacted by many different factors. From seed to sale, positive and negative influences can affect the quality of the product. Aspects, such as soil composition and consistency, harvesting, processing, extracting, sampling, sample preparation, and packaging, all feed into the final quality of cannabis products. Risks along the supply chain can be identified and eliminated or reduced to enhance quality. Testing of cannabis products by an ISO/IEC 17025 accredited laboratory is one way to reduce risks and ensure the quality of products. Accreditation of laboratories by an internationally recognized accreditation body can demonstrate the laboratory's ability to produce precise and accurate test data, through continuous oversight to ensure technical competence is maintained. Join this webinar where we will evaluate factors that could influence the quality of cannabis products from seed to final packaging.
