Description
With extensive processes to ensure compliance, operational safety and efficiency, commissioning and qualification procedures play a critical role in equipment and facility maintenance. A well-conceived and correctly executed commissioning and qualification plan can save time and money on validation. ISPE’s Commissioning and Qualification Baseline Guide was published to give professionals advice and guidance for developing and carrying out an effective commissioning and qualification plan.
The Baseline Guide will form the basis for this course, covering topics such as philosophy/concepts, impact assessment, good engineering practices (GEPs), commissioning versus qualification, and methods of integrating commissioning and validation activities. Participants will discuss the typical components of qualification protocols: installation qualification (IQ), operational qualification (OQ), performance qualification (PQ), enhanced design review (EDR), and failure mode analysis.
In addition to classroom lectures, participants will take part in several interactive exercises that allow application of learned content and familiarity with the structure and content of the guide.
Complimentary copy of the Commissioning and Qualification Baseline® Guide provided.

Continuing Education Units
ISPE will provide continuing education units (ISPE CEUs) for all North American seminars and courses, including educational programming at the ISPE Annual Meeting. CEUs are nationally recognized units of achievement designed for those individuals continuing their education in their chosen field or profession.
Delegates attending European seminars and courses will receive a Certificate of Attendance, as ISPE CEUs are currently not offered at European events. Verification of CEUs is based on attendance as well as satisfactory completion of all evaluation materials. Statements of credit will be mailed within four weeks of evaluation materials. One hour of education programming equals 0.1 ISPE CEU credits.
