Objectives

GMP-relevant computerised systems must be validated. The validation activities shall be sufficiently documented in order to allow inspectors as well as internal and external auditors to review and to understand the validation rigour and accuracy. The live online training will give an overview of the necessary qualification and validation documentation, including its structure and level of detail. The responsibilities of both suppliers as well as their regulated customers will be considered.

Background

“What is not documented has not been done!” The accurate documentation of all CSV activities is the prerequisite for successfully passing regulatory inspections as well as customer audits. On the other hand, creating the documents and maintaining their integrity is also time-consuming and costly. Here it is important to find a balance between “as few as possible but as much as necessary”.

Target Group

This Live Online Training is directed at employees from the pharmaceutical industry and suppliers who have to prepare CSV documents and to document the validation activities of the computerised systems or who will have to carry this out in the future. Both beginners and employees with initial experience are addressed.

Technical Requirements

We use Webex for our live online training courses and webinars. At https://www.gmp-compliance.org/training/online- training-technical-information you will find all the information you need to participate in our events and you can check if your system meets the necessary requirements to participate. If the installation of browser extensions is not possible due to your rights in the IT system, please contact your IT department. Webex is a standard nowadays and the necessary installation is fast and easy.
