Description

The Training

This training program is designed to equip professionals in the pharmaceutical industry and hospital pharmacies with the knowledge and skills necessary to effectively manage, assess and improve the quality of pharmaceutical products during pharmaceutical product development.

It focuses on the different stages in development and testing of a product in these phases to be able to determine the relevant issues and critical aspects of the production process and to compile and submit a registration dossier for market approval.

This course provides a comprehensive understanding of the pharmaceutical development and regulatory affairs landscape, the challenges during development and testing, the impact of gaining knowledge and implementing GMP and developing a pharmaceutical quality system during the different stages.

Participants will gain practical skills, regulatory knowledge, and ethical perspectives necessary to ensure product quality, patient safety, and compliance with industry standards (GLP/GCP/GMP/ICH).

It prepares professionals to excel in their roles and make meaningful contributions to the pharmaceutical industry and hospital pharmacies to be able to assess the relevant information in relation to new products for non-clinical studies and IMP’s for clinical studies.

What is it about?

This two-day training provides insight into the regulatory requirements for drug development from both the viewpoint of regulatory authorities as well as inspection bodies.

Following the journey of product development from drug discovery to non-clinical and clinical studies, the course touches upon the Registration Dossier and will discuss the GLP, GCP and GMP requirements and guidelines.

Understanding regulatory expectations will ensure professionals minimize delays and clarify the decisions made along the way.

Strong points (and why):

Nice overviews on QbD, would be great if more examples are given

Review:

For day 1 add 1 or 2 more workshops to make it more interactive. Analytical part was a bit too dry, also in the way it was presented

Strong points (and why):

I liked the set up of the course were from the begining the idea of the end product was covered. Therefore, it made me keep thinking about why something is important to be done

Review:

I would say the course of Moniek at the end of day 2 was a bit slow for a final course of a day. Therefore, it was hard to keep attention. I think maybe there are to many discussions being started in during presentations of hired trainers. Some add value, but sometimes it feel more like an interuption that gets the trainers out of their story.

4 out of 5 stars

Strong points (and why):

Due to the smaller group it was easier to interact and discuss the topics in the presentations.

Review:

The workshop on day 1 (what is needed for nc, phase 1+2, 3 or commercial) could be split up in sections relevant to the presentations. E.g. fill in the part of analytics after the presentation on analytical development. This way the information is fresh and the presentations tie together keeping in mind what steps are taken through the development phases. Implement more QP relevant tasks during the discussion of the different topics instead of 1 presentation. This ties it the 2 days more together.
