I’m due for 6 CEUs by March 31 and need training that goes deep on UCMR5 PFAS data validation — MDL verification, field/lot blank interpretation, and matrix suppression checks — so decisions about contamination prevention aren’t based on noise. Any recommendations for courses with hands-on casework (e.g., confirming a PFHxS hit at about 3 ng/L before initiating a source-trace) rather than slide decks?
, I was in the same 6‑CEU crunch before March 31; NWETC’s PFAS Sampling & Analysis workshop was the most ‘hands‑on’ — we worked through MDL verification, field/lot blank calls, and a PFHxS about 3 ng/L confirmation via 2x dilution and qualifier ion ratios. It counted for me as CEUs, but some boards treat it as PDHs, so confirm first. +1 to @jordan_85 on emphasizing ‘matrix suppression checks’.
