Dear colleagues,

The dates of the two planned PTB Ex PT Workshops in China at NEPSI (from May 13 to May 14, 2020) and in Germany at PTB (from May 25 to May 28, 2020) are getting closer. Unfortunately, we have a difficult situation with the corona virus now. Apart from the fact that travel possibilities are generally very limited, PTB follows the recommendation of the Federal Ministry of Health of Germany and the Robert Koch Institute to cancel conferences and larger events with international participation if possible. For this reason, we have decided to postpone the two PTB Ex PT Workshops 2020. The following postponement dates are now scheduled:

Shortened PTB Ex PT Workshops 2020 in China at NEPSI: Wednesday, 11th of November 2020 to Thursday, 12th of November 2020

PTB Ex PT Workshops 2020/2021 in Germany at PTB: Monday, 25th of January 2021 to Thursday, 28th of January 2021

The structure, timetables and topics remain as originally planned. The only difference is that we will consider the results and experiences of Phase II of the programs, including the Final Reports.

Previous registrations for PT Workshops must be cancelled for organizational reasons. Persons already registered must register again. The registration will be reopened immediately.

Current information can be found on the websites of the workshops under
https://www.ex-proficiency-testing.ptb.de/workshops/

I would like to apologize for any inconvenience caused by the postponement. Nevertheless, I am convinced that we will experience very informative and fruitful workshops together, just a little later due to the circumstances.

If you have questions or concerns regarding this topic, please don’t hesitate to contact me.

Kind regards
Tim

Please note: Participants who need support after Phase I of the programs and the results of the Interim Report will receive individual and comprehensive support from the PT Team and the respective PTB experts.
