Reportedly Trained or Truly Trained: Developing GMP Training That Works
Product Details
“Mr Vesper is the best presenter I have ever been in training with.”
Effective GMP training can save you millions of dollars — attend this highly interactive workshop and discover the best way to train your employees!
Despite dozens of references to training within the FDA’s GMP regulations, the vagueness of the requirements is a constant source of confusion for companies, their training officers and their employees.
During a recent 12-month period, the FDA issued more than 40 warning letters that cite inadequate training, and it could easily be part of the reason for hundreds more. With billions of dollars at stake for your company, you can’t afford to overlook the value of your GMP training program.
These days, it take more than a training session sign-in sheet to prove whether or not an employee is trained.
Attend this highly interactive one-and-a-half-day workshop and take the pain out of GMP training!
Presented by FDAnews and LearningPlus, Reportedly Trained or Truly Trained: Developing GMP Training That Works is led by training expert James Vesper. This critical workshop thoroughly explains the best way to convey your GMP knowledge to your staff efficiently, accurately and effectively. Through a series of hands-on exercises you’ll develop and deliver a clear and concise GMP training program that will thoroughly prepare your employees to handle GMP with confidence.
At the Reportedly Trained or Truly Trained: Developing GMP Training That Works workshop you will:
- Examine training systems and programs currently in use in the pharmaceutical, medical device and other industries
- Identify current expectations that regulatory agencies and quality auditors have of training systems and programs
- Use a systematic approach to decide when training is — and isn’t — a useful solution to deviations and problems
- Examine models that are used to efficiently design and produce training solutions that meet specific goals
- Design a training solution that would be suitable for ongoing or reinforcement training of operations, staff, technical and management personnel
- Discover how the way procedures are written can help — or hurt — training efforts
- Discuss five ways to assess individuals and evaluate training program effectiveness
