Both the QCLG and the OOS are open to anyone with an interest in forensic quality management.
Set in the unique surroundings of Lake Bled, this event offers a dynamic combination of expert insight, practical workshops, and networking opportunities, designed to support both strategic thinking and day-to-day practice in forensic quality management.
One Day One Topic Seminar (OOS)
Full-day seminar for forensic quality professionals.
Quality and Competence Liaison Group (QCLG)
One-and-a-half-day meeting for quality and competence representatives.
Competency, Risk Management and Quality Culture in Forensic Science
How do we define competence in forensic quality roles?
How do we embed risk management in daily practice and in the QMS?
How do we build and sustain a strong quality culture?
The 2026 meeting explores these questions through practical tools and real-life examples, interactive workshops, and peer exchange across ENFSI laboratories. From competency frameworks to risk-based thinking, the programme is designed to deliver practical outcomes you can apply in your organisation.
These themes will be addressed through two complementary sessions:
The OOS will focus on the development, recognition and continuous improvement of quality professionals, exploring how competence and quality culture are defined, assessed and embedded within forensic organisations.
The QCLG meeting will build on these foundations by focusing on the practical implementation of quality management systems, including risk-based thinking, validation, impartiality and continuous improvement.
Accommodation at special conference rates is available at Sava Hotels Bled — Rikli Balance Hotel (from 173 EUR) and Hotel Savica (from 138 EUR), bed & breakfast.
