Webinar back by popular demand!
This webinar made such a difference that drug and device companies asked for another chance to train staff who use and validate spreadsheets. We decided to offer it again.
Updated, enhanced and in real-time — with live, onscreen webinar access — you can see what steps and strategies top validation expert David Harrison recommends to help you "bulletproof" your compliance programs.
Spreadsheet validation can close the compliance gap before you face high-profile FDA warnings and high-stakes liabilities. Do you know how to implement validation on your own spreadsheets? How to make sure you're meeting FDA expectations? And how to turn that large spreadsheet inventory around with minimum effort and minimal resources?
You’ll watch as David shares examples, manipulates cells and provides tips and tricks to streamline your spreadsheet validation process.
Step by step, he’ll walk you through his own spreadsheet to demonstrate what functionality needs to be validated and what security controls need to be put into place. Plus, David will provide examples of third-party software features that improve security and audit trail capabilities within Microsoft Excel spreadsheets.
See firsthand how to develop a spreadsheet that closes the gaps the FDA is after!
In this 90-minute Encore presentation with Q&A session, David also reveals how to use a risk-based approach to achieve maximum compliance with minimum time, trouble and expense.
