Measurement Uncertainty (MU) has many uses and is an important component of a laboratory’s activities. This course will present the basics for evaluating measurement uncertainty.
At the end of the course, you will know how to use uncertainty and evaluate it efficiently.
This is a one-day course that is split over two half-days.

This course covers:
- What MU is
- The multiple uses of MU
- The Types & Categories of Methods (physical, qualitative, chemical) & how they relate to MU
- Some statistical tools used to estimate MU
- How to Evaluate MU
- Identify the measurand
- List the steps in the analytical process
- Identify potential uncertainty components
- Estimate uncertainty for each source
- Combine the uncertainty estimates
- Understand the relation between MU & Metrological Traceability
This course uses EXCEL charts and simulated experiments to demonstrate the concepts and statistical tools.
