Online Seminar: Measurement Uncertainties in Temperature
What You Will Learn in This Seminar
In this seminar, you will learn how to calculate measurement uncertainties in temperature measurement and temperature calibration.
We will show you how to meet all requirements according to GUM and the current DKD/DAkkS/EA guidelines. We will also discuss typical errors and how you can avoid them. The specialized knowledge and sample calculations provided in the practical section will give you confidence in creating your measurement uncertainty budgets. This way, you will never again have the feeling that something went wrong with your calculations or that you forgot something important.
Benefits of the Seminar
Complete Seminar
Across four theory and practical modules each, we will provide you with all essential content. You will receive assignments for case studies and can directly apply what you have learned. We will then discuss the results in the group.
Virtual Conference
In our seminar, you can actively participate. You can ask questions at any time and exchange experiences with others. We set up a virtual conference room for this purpose. It is therefore not a webinar where you just listen.
Klasmeier Connect
With group chat and direct messages, you can exchange ideas with participants and speakers, watch videos, and download PDFs in the KlasmeierConnect Community.
Access remains available after the seminar.

How the Online Seminar Works
Theory Part Program Flow
We have divided the seminar into a theory and a practical part. The knowledge gained in the theory part can be directly applied in the practical part. As part of case studies involving various calibration tasks, you will create practical measurement uncertainty budgets. These comply with the valid DAkkS guidelines and can be used as templates for your own measurement uncertainty budgets.
The content of the theory part is distributed over four consecutive modules. Each module lasts approximately 60 minutes.
And don’t worry if you can’t be there live on one of the dates: We record all modules for you and make them available to you afterwards in the KlasmeierConnect Community at your convenience.
Module 1 – Fundamental Theory for Creating Measurement Uncertainty Budgets in Temperature
Fundamentals of Probability Theory and Statistics

Module 4 – Measurement Uncertainty Components for the Measurement Uncertainty Budget – Measurement Data Acquisition

Practical Part Program Flow
The practical seminar is divided into four modules. Each module lasts 60 minutes. In each module, tasks will be discussed and explained using case studies. Between the individual modules, you can work on the tasks and expand your skills. In the subsequent modules, we will discuss the results in the group.
Throughout the entire time, you can use the Klasmeier.Connect Community for communication, data exchange, and collaborative work on documents. With the chat system, you can also communicate with other seminar participants and speakers during the practice time between modules.
The content of the practical part is based on the guidelines “DKD-R 5-3 Calibration of Thermocouples” and “DKD-R 5-1 Calibration of Resistance Thermometers”. This way, you can use the documents, exercises, and results afterwards as templates for your own measurement uncertainty budgets.
