Our Pilot EQA Schemes

Before fully implementing an EQA scheme, UK NEQAS H&I will typically run the scheme(s) for a pilot year free of charge (excl. carriage). This will allow us to assess the effectiveness of the new EQA scheme(s) and receive feedback from participants regarding anything they found useful or may want to change during the pilot year. UK NEQAS H&I can then make any necessary updates prior to it becoming an ‘official’ EQA scheme.

During the pilot year, participants are able to register for free and take part in a condensed version of what the official EQA scheme will be. This means there will be less samples shipped compared to the full EQA scheme. There will also be no ‘formal’ assessment provided – however a full summary will be given to each participant. Performance tables will also be available to view after each distribution, allowing participants to view their performance against others. UK NEQAS H&I are always open to feedback, so please do let us know any thoughts you may have if you do take part in a pilot scheme.
