Overview

In order for the global metrology system to continue to improve, whilst underpinning its long-term sustainability, it is necessary to operate the technical framework - the CIPM MRA - as effectively as possible.

These online CIPM MRA courses from the BIPM are usually delivered in consultation with a particular RMO. The online course will offer you a general understanding of the CIPM MRA requirements on comparisons, quality management systems and CMCs. It will also offer you the skills to use of the KCDB tools for creation of CMCs, operation of the review process and piloting of comparisons, effectively.
