Target Group
This Live Online Training is directed at employees from Production, Quality Control / Quality Assurance, Engineering, IT who have to deal with risk assessment and risk management in the field of computerised system validation.
Background
Current GMP regulations and guidelines (EU-GMP Guide Annex 11 ‘Computerised Systems’, ICH Q9 (R1), GAMP® 5 Second Edition, ASTM E2500-25) focus more and more on the topic of risk management. However, the regulations do not offer much concrete advice on how their principles should be translated into practice during the validation and operation of computerised systems. Therefore, it is the aim of this course to provide you with practice-oriented guidance in performing this task.
Objectives
- Get to know the current risk management approaches of ICH Q9 (R1) and GAMP® 5 Second Edition
- Become familiar with the use of the latest methods and tools for risk analysis when validating computerised systems
- Learn how the activities involved in the validation of computerised systems can be controlled efficiently by means of risk management
- In 3 case studies / workshops you can see how these procedures are applicable
