The 38th SMIIC MC Training within the SMIIC MC Work Plan 2024 – 2026 V3 was the The Training on Calibration and Uncertainty Evaluation for Thermo-Hygrometers on the 07 July 2026 virtually, technically hosted by SMIIC General Secretariat.  25 experts participated in the training.

The training was hosted by NMI:  Emirates Metrology Metrology  (EMI) 

General Description: This training provides the basic knowledge needed for relative humidity calibrations and evaluation of the measurement uncertainty. It explains the mathematical functions for water vapor pressure, the definitions of relative humidity and dew/ice point, the basic principles used by the humidity generators, the measurement procedures utilized and the uncertainty terms involved.

Objective, expected outcome: Train participants for calibration of relative humidity meters and air temperature sensors.

Who should attend: The responsible staff for (AUV) vibration labs should attend the training.
