Course Description
Benjamin Franklin famously said:
“Tell me and I forget, teach me and I may remember, involve me and I learn”

This course has been entirely redesigned with this cogent observation in mind so that each person can get involved in problem solving and thus learn about how to run regulatory studies that must be performed in compliance with Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) Regulations.

Overall, the main intent is to review the roles and responsibilities of the STUDY DIRECTOR who is in overall control when running GLP studies. The learning initiative is achieved through short lectures, illustrative answers to FAQs and by collective problem solving workshops. The aim is to ensure that each participant is personally faced with real life situations for which a study director has to find GLP compliant solutions.

To understand GLP study direction you must understand how studies are planned, performed and reported. So the course also includes workshops on protocols (study plans), the implementation of procedures and the importance of the study report within the context of the GLP safety studies. The participants will also be challenged with the issues of study integrity and the problems of study reconstruction.

At every research laboratory, GLP study directors inevitably have problems of GLP implementation. The participants will be challenged to give their own reactions to real-life situations and to solve the issues arising in a way compliant with the regulations.

Involving the participants in GLP decision making processes means that they will learn and understand rather than just receiving information as they would from a standard course.

The course will concentrate on existing OECD and FDA Good Laboratory Practices and their application to the workplace including recent developments such as multi-site and short term studies.

Although there will be ample time for participants to ask questions, the course directors will also hold an optional, free, two-hour “GLP Study Director - Clinic” after the end of the course for those who have detailed or specificc problems that they would like to discuss with them, either privately (if your institute considers the issue to be confidential) or openly with all participants if the topic does not require confidential treatment.

He was also the founder and Chief Editor of the Quality Assurance Journal, an international scientific journal specifically addressing subjects of interest to R&D and QA personnel.

He has lectured and trained widely and has been an active participant in developing training in Good Practices and QA, working with a number of international groups including the OECD and the WHO. His latest contribution through the WHO has been in the co-authoring of a set of guidelines for research performed upstream of the regulatory scene, called “Quality Practices in Basic Biomedical Research”.
