Technical Writing for Medical Products: SOPs, Investigations and Change Records

In this training program, attendees will learn quick formatting tips that will make writing more readable and learn how to use formatting tools in a way to maximize the impact of their writing in an electronic system.

Why Should You Attend:

Advanced technology may have pushed effective communication to the wayside to make clear writing a lost art, now due for revival. In the Information Age, a surplus of technical data proliferates with very little information communicated in plain language. Unclear communication can confuse compliance auditors who need to quickly assess whether an unfamiliar organization fulfills requirements. Poor writing therefore can contribute to an audit communication breakdown, leading to undesired audit findings.

This webinar will focus on effective communication of technical information so that an external auditor will quickly understand it and credit your organization with doing the job right.
