GMP Fundamentals for the Pharmaceutical Industry

GMP Fundamentals for the Pharmaceutical Industry (G01)

Overview

This course is designed to help participants understand the GMPs as they relate to the pharmaceutical industry. Participants will gather information about both European regulators and the FDA, how the various agencies enforce GMP requirements, and what to expect during a routine GMP inspection. They will examine and discuss the process of a regulatory inspection and gain valuable insight into the compliance auditing process. This includes a discussion of the FDA Systems Based Approach to inspections (Compliance Document 7356-002). In addition, participants will investigate the science behind the requirements, the people side of GMP, the challenge of defending products against contamination, how to consistently build quality into products, and how to personally audit for GMP compliance and performance. The course will conclude with a discussion on the basic GMP requirements related to facility and equipment controls.
