Practical Laboratory Training Programmes

Drawing on over 30 years of experience supporting the pharmaceutical, medical device, environmental, and food industries, CLS has developed a range of specialised laboratory training programmes designed to address the practical skills and knowledge required in today's laboratory environments. These programmes have been created by industry professionals with extensive hands on experience and are built around the real world challenges and expectations faced by analysts working in regulated sectors.

The content is based on the proven internal laboratory training programmes developed by CLS for our Managed Resourcing division, where analysts receive comprehensive training before being deployed to client sites. Through these programmes, CLS shares the knowledge, expertise, methodologies, and best practices that have been developed over three decades and have helped establish the company as the highest accredited Irish-led life sciences company, giving participants access to the same standards, processes, and practical insights used across our organisation.
