What are Proficiency What are Proficiency Tests and Inter Tests and Inter

Laboratory Comparisons?Laboratory Comparisons? Inter Laboratory Comparisons for Laboratories: Inter Laboratory Comparisons for Laboratories:

Organisation, performance and evaluation of tests on the Organisation, performance and evaluation of tests on the same or similar test items by two or more laboratories in same or similar test items by two or more laboratories in accordance with predetermined conditions. (ISO Guide 43-1 accordance with predetermined conditions. (ISO Guide 43-1 1997)1997)

Proficiency testing for laboratories: Proficiency testing for laboratories: IInterlaboratory comparisons designed to assure laboratory

performance in specified areas of testing, measurement or calibration

Proficiency Testing (PT) can also be called: Inter Laboratory Comparisons (ILC) External Quality Control (EQC) Round Robin Test
