This two-day course is intended for designers and engineers who require an overview of the requirements of the BS 8888 standard. It has been updated to take account of the latest version of the standard, BS 8888:2020.
The course includes a review of good practice for technical product specification, as well as covering the key concepts and requirements of BS 8888 and ISO Geometrical Product Specification.
Course schedule
Dates TBC. Each day will consist of three sessions:
09:00 – 10:45
11:00 – 12:45
14:00 – 15:45
Participation
To join the sessions, you will need a device with internet access, a webcam, speakers and microphone. Most laptops and tablets are suitably equipped for this. Desktop PCs may require a plug-in webcam, microphone and speakers (or headset). If necessary, it is possible to connect through a PC for the video and use a telephone for audio, but this does not always work so well.
Delivery
The course will be delivered as three live sessions each day, each lasting between 1½ and 1¾ hours, on two consecutive days. The sessions will be delivered on the Zoom video conferencing system, which is easy to use. Instructions on how to join the sessions with Zoom will be provided.

Module 1: Measurement & Metrology
This module introduces the concept of measurement, as well as metrology – the science of measurement and its application. As we work through the module, we will explore the idea that all measurements are inherently imperfect, define different terms in measurement, understand the role of measuring instruments, see how to state a measurement result, and more.
Module 2: Measurement Uncertainty
In Module 1, we learned that no measurement can be perfect. In this module, we will introduce the concept of measurement uncertainty as a quantification of the doubt in measured values. We will also explore factors that contribute to measurement uncertainty.
Module 3: The SI Unit
In Module 1, we learned that no measurement can be perfect. In this module, we will introduce the concept of measurement uncertainty as a quantification of the doubt in measured values. We will also explore factors that contribute to measurement uncertainty.
