Sampling Workshop - 09:00-12:30 GMT
Depending on the amount and diversity of the material encountered, sampling errors are typically much larger than assaying errors, very often endangering representativity. How can you guarantee a representative sample and analytical result?
Kim H. Esbensen (Senior Consultant and Professor at KHE Consulting - and one of our esteemed keynote speakers) will be leading a three-hour workshop on the Theory of Sampling, which will include:
- Principles of the Theory of Sampling;
- What happens in the critical 'before analysis' domain;
- Which errors matter and what to do; and
- Resolution - the universal standard DS3077:2024 (3. ed.).
Workshop Fees
- £133 per person; and as part of your registration, you will also receive a copy of Kim H. Esbensen's book, Introduction to the Theory and Practice of Sampling.
