Good Laboratory Practices
Training Manual & Video Series
What are best practices for running and managing a laboratory? Here we present two formats as guides. The first format is a manual about Good Laboratory Management: Training Manual for Trainers. This manual provides a step-by-step guide for a five-day training course that includes the set of presentations provided in the following section.
The second format is a series of 10 short videos. These videos were filmed at a working lab at the University of Florida. The instructor is this lab's manager: Richard Fethiere (pictured here). He shows you essential elements of the laboratory and guiding principles for management.
Where to start?
Students and those who are new to laboratory settings may wish to begin with the videos. The first video provides an introduction, and the other videos may be selected in any order. Collectively they offer a "Laboratory 101" overview.
Teachers and laboratory managers will be able to use the manual and the presentations to prepare for classes or an introductory course. Click here for additional information about the manual. For related resources and support, visit our LSIL Academy.
