DHI Singapore is conducting a 10-day training programme for a group of members of the Pakistan National Laboratories (Water Research and Fish Quality Control Laboratories) from 15-26 April 2013. This training is fully funded by the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO) under the EU-funded program ‘Trade Related Technical Assistance-II’.
The on-going training program is tailor-made to specifically suit the client’s requirements. The topics include:
- laboratory quality management for compliance with ISO 17025
- test methods for residue analysis (dioxins, antibiotic residues, pesticides and heavy metals)
We will repeat the same training in May for another group of professionals from Pakistan.
A representative from UNIDO – Dr. Ali Abbas Qazilbash – recently visited our office in Singapore to discuss UNIDO’s objectives on capacity building and other EU-funded programmes. Dr. Qazilbash is UNIDO's Programme Officer (Laboratory Accreditation & SPS Compliance) in the Trade Related Technical Assistance (TRTA) Programme.He met with our senior professionals in key technical areas to gain a detailed understanding of our overall capabilities. Moreover, he explored the possibility of future UNIDO-DHI collaborations.
