Change in the turn around time for PT Results

ZINQAP would like to take this opportunity to advise all PT participants of the change in the turn around time for the Proficiency Testing reports from ZINQAP to your facilities. In the past ZINQAP used to send the PT reports to all the participants within a one month cycle. However due to the need to embrace other participants handicapped by transport challenges, PT reports have with effect from April 2010 been sent to participants after a 2 month cycle.

We sincerely regret any inconvenience caused.
