MEET YOUR INSTRUCTOR

Rick Hogan

HI, I’M RICK HOGAN

I’m a pro at estimating uncertainty. Here’s how I can help you.

 
I’ve been estimating uncertainty in measurement since 2008. Over the years, I have developed simple and clever ways to calculate measurement uncertainty. In 2010, ILAC released the first version of the P14 policy which changed how calibration laboratories calculate and report measurement uncertainty. To prevent ruining laboratory production, I developed a process to estimate calibration uncertainty quickly. Using Microsoft Excel, I created an uncertainty calculator that could be added into calibration checklists and templates that would automatically calculate calibration uncertainty in accordance with ILAC P14.

Nearly 10 years later, I am still using the same process because it works!

Most commercial calibration software has not yet integrated this capability (even though I have submitted more than 100 complaints).

Over the years, I have taught clients how to calculate uncertainty and report it in their calibration certificates.

Now, you can learn the same process that I use to calculate calibration uncertainty and increase your laboratory production.

However, it does not stop there! You can use this process to quickly QA calibration reports before submitting them to a customer. Plus, you can use it to calculate uncertainty for your proficiency tests and interlaboratory comparisons.

Learning this process can really help you and your laboratory. That’s why I created How to Calculate Calibration Uncertainty to help calibration laboratories learn from my successes and failures so they can meet ISO/IEC 17025:2017 requirements.

A FINAL NOTE

Stop wasting time trying to figure it out on your own. Let me show you how to calculate and report calibration uncertainty. It is much easier than you think. Don’t risk getting a deficiency. It will cost you more time and money than this course to fix it. Plus, you will regret it.
 
Have you ever got a deficiency?
 
Then, you should know everything that is involved in correcting it. You have to:
 

  1. Write up a nonconformance,
  2. Conduct an investigation to:
    1. Find the cause,
    2. Find other affected work/results
  3. Take corrective action to:
    1. Fix the problem,
    2. Draft/update policies and procedures,
    3. Provide training to personnel,
    4. Notify affected customers,
    5. Recall affected work
  4. Submit objective evidence to your accreditation body,
  5. Wait for them to:
    1. Approve your corrective actions, or
    2. Ask you to do more

 
Deficiencies take a long time to resolve! You could be stuck spending months trying to fix them while your accreditation body tells you that it isn’t good enough.

Worse yet! Your lab could get stuck living on extensions for months and your customers calling you each month questioning whether or not you are accredited.

Don’t let this happen to you. Just let me help you.
