Description
With consolidation in the industry and the advent of multinational pharmaceutical companies, the transfer
of expertise and technology for active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) between manufacturing sites has
become a commonplace occurrence. It is important to have a standardized methodology - to accommodate an
increased movement and to complete the transfers in a timely and approvable manner. The ISPE Good Practice
Guide: Technology Transfer describes this type of standard methodology.
Taking principles from ISPE Good Practice Guide: Technology Transfer and using the Guide as a textbook,
the course will cover technology transfer of APIs and fundamentals of analytical methodology to assist in the
challenges faced during API transfer. Participants will take part in exercises to demonstrate the principles
presented and have additional opportunities to discuss their specific situations.
Participants will receive a complimentary copy of the ISPE Good
Practice Guide: Technology Transfer.

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 sent via email within four
weeks of evaluation materials. One hour of education programming equals 0.1 ISPE CEU credits.
