Objectives

You will have the possibility to learn and intensively discuss
  • how to focus on specific GMP related aspects
  • how to act and react in an audit

Background

Continuous professional training for auditors and lead auditors is of utmost importance as the authorities expect qualified per- sonal performing audits. And GMP audits of suppliers, contract manufacturers and contract laboratories are a fundamental part of a Quality Management System to assure the quality of a drug product. Only knowledgeable and highly qualified auditors with a profound technical knowledge and good communication skills can guarantee audits that are useful for both the auditing com- pany and the auditee.

Recognising this need for further professional knowledge devel- opment, the ECA Academy has set up this practice-oriented course which is also part of ECA’s Certified GMP Auditor Pro- gramme.

Target Group

This course is designed for both new and experienced auditors. It can also be seen as an addition to the ECA Course “The GMP Au- ditor”.
