The Lab Technician Training in Medical Laboratory and Clinical Chemistry course offers a complete learning pathway for anyone aiming to pursue or advance a career in healthcare laboratories. This comprehensive and practical training covers the theoretical foundations and hands-on skills required to excel in clinical diagnostics, specimen handling, biochemical testing, parasitology, safety protocols, and quality assurance practices.

Drawn from 8 robust modules, the course builds competence step-by-step—from using microscopes and analyzers to preparing chemical solutions and interpreting diagnostic test results. Learners will engage with real-world procedures that reflect the operations of modern clinical laboratories.

Key Modules Covered:

Module 1: Introduction to Medical Laboratory Science

• Role of laboratories in healthcare

• PPE, basic equipment, and compliance

• Overview of quality assurance

Module 2: Medical Laboratory Services – Main Topics

• Clinical pathology, microbiology, and anatomy

• Testing procedures, interpretation, and reporting

• Importance of lab services in early diagnosis and treatment

Module 3: Solutions Used in Clinical/Medical Laboratory

• Types of lab solutions: saline, buffer, standard

• Preparation, standardisation, and reagent use

• Safe handling and chemical storage practices

Module 4: Sterilisation, Disinfection, and Decontamination

• Aseptic techniques and autoclaving

• Chemical disinfectants and surface protocols

• Decontamination and infection control measures

Module 5: Basic Clinical Chemistry

• Core tests: blood glucose, liver function, electrolytes

• Biochemical markers (e.g., troponin, PSA)

• Sample handling, centrifugation, and analysis

Module 6: Basic Parasitology

• Identification of protozoa, helminths, and ectoparasites

• Life cycles and transmission routes

• Microscopy, staining, and molecular diagnostics

Module 7: Laboratory Accidents and Safety

• Common accident types and causes

• Risk assessment, PPE, emergency response

• Safety reporting and regulatory compliance
