Managing laboratory personnel competency requires more than a training checklist.

Laboratories need an organized process to document qualifications, authorize testing personnel, schedule first-year and annual competency assessments, evaluate required procedures, verify assessor qualifications, and address deficiencies.

The **LabCendence™ Laboratory Personnel Competency Assessment Master Kit** provides an integrated collection of editable Word documents and an Excel management dashboard to support these activities.

Designed for laboratory directors, technical supervisors, general supervisors, laboratory managers, compliance professionals, and qualified competency assessors.

IMPORTANT FIRST-YEAR COMPETENCY FEATURE

One of the most important areas addressed by this toolkit is first-year competency scheduling.

For applicable moderate- and high-complexity testing, CLIA requires personnel competency assessments at least twice during the first year of testing patient specimens at the laboratory and annually thereafter.

The toolkit supports documentation of the initial patient-testing date, first-year assessment milestones, assessor records, and evidence completion.

The Excel workbook contains six-month and first-year planning calculations. Laboratories must review these dates against applicable regulatory requirements and their approved policies.

**Training and competency assessment are separate activities.** Completion of training alone does not establish personnel competency.

WHO CAN USE THIS KIT?

- Clinical laboratory directors
- Laboratory managers and administrators
- Technical supervisors
- General supervisors
- Quality assurance personnel
- Laboratory compliance consultants
- Qualified personnel competency assessors
- Moderate- and high-complexity clinical laboratories

Certain records also address applicable provider-performed microscopy procedures. Not every form applies to every laboratory.
