Who Should Attend
This course has been designed for individuals who have a general understanding of cGMP operations and want to learn more about proposing, designing, launching, and operating a RBT system. Personnel working for pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies in the following functions should attend:
• Clinical Manufacturing
• Commercial Production
• Management
• Process Development
• Quality Assurance
• Quality Control
• Training
• Validation Description
Current Good Manufacturing Practice (cGMP) requires that each person engaged in the manufacture, processing, packing, or holding of drug product shall have training to enable that person to perform the assigned functions. ICH Q9, Quality Risk Management, explains risk management and suggests that level of effort should be commensurate with the level of risk to patients.
This intensive, interactive two-day course will review the components of a cGMP-compliant training system and present the benefits of a system that optimizes resources by ensuring that the level of training effort is commensurate with risk. While risk to patients is the key consideration for all pharmaceuticals and biological drug products, the course will also address risk to personnel, environment, and business operations. Critical activities required for justification, design, launch, and operation of a RBT system will be discussed and applied during in-class workshops.
