The training
The development of a new therapeutic product is a complicated and expensive process that may take up to 12 years (or more!) before hitting the shelves. Insight into applicable quality management systems, GxPs, and regulatory expectations will help participants minimizing delays and provide clarity on the decisions made along the way.
Previously organized by PAO Farmacie, now by PCS Academy.
Target audience
Professionals in pharmaceutical and biotechnological industries, Professionals in institutions and Contract Research Organisations (CRO’s), Hospital pharmacists and Postgraduate students.
The course is aimed at (young) professionals in non-clinical and clinical development of new medicinal products, production, packaging, Quality Control, Quality Assurance or Regulatory Affairs who are dealing with complex quality systems. The target audience needs to gain an in-depth understanding of these systems to improve quality management in their own organization. The course is an international training program in English and requires, at minimum, a Bachelor’s Degree level (HBO level in the Netherlands).
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. We will explore the development of a new Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API), following the principles of Quality by Design.
Then non-clinical development is discussed, including toxicology, up to clinical development and manufacturing, referring to GLP, GCP and GMP requirements and regulatory guidelines.
Course structure
Expert knowledge and real-life case studies are combined to form an ideal learning experience. Professionals from industry and academia will share their wealth of experience and knowledge during the course.
The course is highly interactive. The program is offered as a combination of self-study, theory, and practical case studies.
