Training Course Syllabus:

Getting to Know FDA Audit Practices and the 10 Most Common Cited GMP Deficiencies Webinar

Time: 10:00 AM PST | 01:00 PM EST

Duration: 90 Minutes

Instructor: Kenneth Christie

Description:

Learn more about FDA´s current audit techniques and the most commonly cited GMP deficiencies that you have to watch out for. The webinar instructor, an FDA and GMP training expert, will help attendees analyse a system of risk assessments to determine audit frequencies.

The success of an audit by federal regulators does not always depend on the level of training proffered to staff and department employees, but also in understanding the focus of recent inspections within the industry. Such information provides a template for companies to analyze their own practices and ensure similar issues have been adequately addressed. In addition, as the audit techniques of the FDA have changed over the years, knowing what to expect can help establish a focused training program as part of the preparation.

Why Should you Attend:
