Who Should Attend?
This is an in depth course intended for product development scientists and technologists and support groups concerned with the development, designing and processing of tablets and similar oral products.

The material will be presented in such a way as to be of value to a varying level of expertise. This course will especially benefit those in:
  • Formulation Development 
  • Quality Assurance
  • Research and Development 
  • Validation
  • Regulatory Affairs 
  • Manufacturing/Production
  • Engineering Support

Note: Persons seeking a broader based program may wish to consider an alternative, more generalized course offered by CfPA in this area of technology. 

Course Description
The main aim of this 3-day intensive course is to review the science relating to formulation and process selection in the design of tabletted pharmaceutical products. The course begins with a consideration of the final process of making tablets and meeting the challenges of the API and delivering the targeted therapy. Knowing the targets, the ingredients available and the selection criteria for ingredients are reviewed. The impact of the API, the chosen platform and the strategies for choosing the processes to obtain the targeted performance are reviewed. The program concludes with key aspects of designing principles of setting up DOEs and the role of QbD in creating the operating/design space, investigation and eliminate risk. Evaluation, problem solving and regulatory constraints are discussed at each stage.

Formal sessions of the course are supplemented with informal discussion periods between lecturers and course participants and problem-solving sessions are held on both an open and private basis.
