CD-ROM "GMP Navigator" 5.0
Due to the large demand for the previous
version, new development steps have been realised in version 5.0. A new
user interface makes it much easier to navigate through the documents. By
means of compressing the Warning Letter files, the number of documents on
the CD could be raised significantly. A new feature are the documents of
the Global Harmonisation Task Force (GHTF). As in the past years, the CDs
are exclusively given free of charge to the participants of ECA events.

opportunity to take part in this ECA Certification by attending 3 events.
We are happy about the good response! Therefore, the Programme will be
extended considerably in 2003.
Web Service www.gmp-compliance.org
The number of visitors increases every
month. At an average, more than 2,000 ECA members and non-members visit
the website monthly. After the installation of the Meta Search as a tool
that can be used by all visitors, a new service will soon be offered
exclusively to ECA members (in the Members Area). The new service, called
"Guideline Tree," will be available from May to June to all
visitors. After 15 June, this service will only be accesible to ECA
Members.
Educational Programme
In 2003, we intend to augment the number
of ECA events from 33 in 2002 to 47. Last year's trend to offer
high-quality Education Courses will be continued. It is our aim to offer
seminars with a limit to the number of participants, however, not to have
them conducted by one or two consultants, as is common practice. Regarding
these intensive seminars, we rather arrange for the lectures to be given
by several speakers from industry, authorities and service industries.
ECA Working Programme 2003 and 2004
Also in the future, ECA will depend
exclusively on the voluntary work of its members and Advisory Board
members. Only because of this support and the co-operation with CONCEPT
HEIDELBERG is it possible for us to carry on offering all of the services
free of charge to our members.
Advisory Board Members
Also in 2002, we were able to extend the
ECA activities through the work of our Advisory Board with members from
the industry, associations and authorities. The Advisory Board members
are:
