CDRH Extends Experiential Learning Program for 2018

CDRH is extending its Experiential Learning Program for agency staff into 2018 and is calling for submissions from potential participants.

The agency launched the collaborative staff training program this year to help close the knowledge gap between emerging technology and pre-market reviews of medical devices.

Participants in the program gain a better understanding of the products they review, how they are developed, challenges related to quality systems development and management in the product life cycles, and how medical devices fit into the larger healthcare system, the agency said.
