Accuracy (Trueness and Precision) of Measurement Methods and Results

ISO 5725 uses two terms, “trueness” and “precision”, to describe the accuracy of a measurement method. “Trueness” refers to the closeness of agreement between the expectation of a measurement result and a true value. "Precision" refers to the closeness of agreement between independent measurement results obtained under stipulated conditions.

Participants for this training course will learn:

• specifies basic methods for estimating the bias of a measurement method and the laboratory bias when a measurement method is applied
• provides a practical approach of a basic method for routine use in estimating the bias of measurement methods and laboratory bias
• provides a brief guidance to all personnel concerned with designing, performing or analyzing the results of the measurements for estimating bias.
• measurement methods which yield measurements on a continuous scale and give a single value as the measurement result, although the single value can be the outcome of a calculation from a set of observations.
• the measurement method has been standardized and all measurements are carried out according to that measurement method.

• This training is designed for individuals seeking to expand their knowledge of measurement accuracy, including trueness and precision of methods and results.
• It is suitable for professionals aiming to understand and evaluate the reliability and validity of measurement outcomes.
• The course targets those working in testing, calibration, quality control, and laboratory environments.
• It is also relevant for engineers, technicians, and specialists involved in measurement and data analysis.
• The program benefits anyone interested in improving measurement quality, consistency, and performance evaluation.
