In this 3 Half-day course attendees will understand the importance of documentation, and writing it down. If you didn’t write it down, it didn’t happen! This is the position of the FDA and most regulatory agencies internationally.
Good documentation is essential for doing business in the GMP world from manufacturing to selling the product.
It is also important for due diligence and regulatory inspections and is a necessity for the success of GMP-manufactured products and services. While the regulations tell you what you must do, they don’t tell you how.
Based on industry best practices, this course makes it clear how to perfect your existing systems. This course also addresses what documents need to be controlled, what documentation is needed to support your actual system, and how to keep your documents current and compliant.
This course provides hands-on methodology and techniques on how to identify systems that require documentary coverage. It also covers the design, implementation and management of such documentation systems to ensure continuous compliance. The course also addresses FDA’s concerns regarding data integrity.
Types of documentation addressed include: quality manuals, policy manuals, standard operating procedures, work instructions, forms, records, etc. The course also addresses aspects of 21 CFR Part 11 - Electronic Records and Signatures.
The program consists of lectures, discussions, and case studies. Class size is limited to ensure individual interaction with the instructor. Participants are encouraged to discuss their own needs and challenges regarding documentation.
