Workshops and Webinars

The overall aim of the workshop is to provide information on insect detection in seed lots and to enable participants to practise the different methods that can be used. During the theoretical presentations and training sessions, participants will gain an insight into the potential and limitations of using these methods in seed testing. Some information on how to identify insects will also be presented. The workshop will also encourage general discussion and feedback on this increasing issue.

In this one-hour webinar, our aim is to address the following questions:

- Why is the risks and opportunities assessment necessary?
- How do I install the process to comply with the requirement 10.11 of the ISTA Accreditation standard?
- What evidence should we provide to the ISTA Auditors to demonstrate that risks and opportunities are considered, and the results obtained are suitable to reduce the identified risks?
- How to proceed when an opportunity is also identified?

Our goal is to explain the process as requested by the ISTA Accreditation Standard in an easy and useful manner. The presenters will discuss the theoretical aspects, but they are also prepared to give some examples and practical advice on how to address this requirement.

We believe this session will be a valuable training opportunity for:

- Candidates seeking ISTA Accreditation who want to enhance their quality management system.
- ISTA Accredited laboratories looking for a refresher on best practices.
