This interactive, expert-led three-day course will equip learners with the knowledge and confidence to create Measurement Uncertainty budgets that conform to the requirements of ISO/IEC 17025:2017 to ensure reported results are traceable to the SI. It is aimed at delegates with a common interest in forensic collision investigation.
This in-depth course is designed to deepen understanding of the principles and practical applications of Measurement Uncertainty (MU).
Please ensure you read the minimum requirements and ensure you have the prior knowledge required for this course before booking to attend.
Who is this course for?
This course is for Forensic Collision Investigators who are managing and/or applying uncertainty within their organisations and who require greater awareness of measurement uncertainties and calculation of uncertainty budgets in a practical setting. This could include:
- Forensic Collision Investigation practitioners of uncertainty budgets looking to develop their skills and understanding
- UKAS also offers an introductory course designed for individuals requiring a basic understanding of the concepts of MU. See ‘Introduction to Measurement Uncertainty’.

Using course exercises that have been selected to be in a more recognisable area of measurement for the delegates, by the end of this course, learners will have:
- A wider consideration of sources that contribute to uncertainty
- A greater understanding of the evaluation and application of MU
- The knowledge and skills to organise uncertainty budgets and present an uncertainty estimate in reports and certificates
Learners who complete this training will be able to attend our free post-course drop-in sessions to support their learning. The hour-long virtual sessions run monthly and can be attended as many times as required to ask our training team any post-course questions.
- Traceability, Equations & Metrological terms
- Probability Distributions & statistical calculations, Central Limit Theorem
- Sources of Uncertainty
- Evaluation of uncertainty budgets, reporting results
- Correlated Quantities
- Decisions and Conformity with Specifications
This course requires learners to have an understanding of the basic mathematics used in uncertainty budgets, such as the calculation of mean values, squares, square roots and standard deviation.
Learners will also be expected to use Excel (or equivalent) spreadsheets to complete exercises during the course. There will be brief reminders to refresh the delegate’s knowledge of these principles and how to apply them in Excel, but it is expected that attendees for this course have prior knowledge of these key principles.
UKAS Academy virtual courses are usually delivered via the Adobe Connect application. Download links for this free programme can be found within our ‘minimum requirements‘ document.
Learners will be required to complete a pre-course exercise before attending and are asked to set aside approximately two hours for this activity.
