Biotechnology Documentation and IT Regulatory Compliance Training - Live Webinars, Recordings & CDs

This webinar on avoiding serious FDA 483s will explain FDA's changed audit focus based on recent top 483 findings and provide practical tips on how to better prepare your company's internal audit program to avoid serious Form 483 observations.

Cloud computing has become perhaps the most critical compliance topic related to computer validation and electronic records. The potential economic and resource advantages to using cloud based environments guarantee that management will expect compliance strategies to be developed that will support decisions to utilize cloud environments to perform regulated activities. This presentation will provide a baseline of information related to cloud computing which will help attendees better understand the cloud concept, associated regulatory challenges, and suggestions for consideration when establishing a cloud based system.

This training program will discuss CDISC requirements to create SDTMs and ADaMs. It will also offer essential mapping and strategy concepts for creating and validating SDTM and ADaM variables in key CDISC datasets (DM, AE, ADSL, and ADAE).

In this webinar attendees will learn about FDA’s regulatory expectations for classifying, assessing the risk, testing, and validating a computer system used in FDA-regulated work. Also attendees will learn in detail about the System Development Life Cycle (SDLC) methodology used to approach Computer System Validation (CSV), including all of the phases, sequencing of events, deliverables, and documentation requirements.

This webinar will explain how to apply the theory of lean documents and its corollary theory of lean configuration to present a fresh approach to controlled document system for a life sciences manufacturing plant.

This 3 hour virtual training will provide an overview of the concepts and types of immune responses elicited by biologics. The factors contributing to immunogenicity and impact on efficacy and safety will be identified. Validated screening and confirmatory methods that measure an immune response to a biologic during the various stages of development, clinical studies and post-approval surveillance will be discussed.

A tougher U.S. FDA expects a company to maintain certain documents in equipment, process and product software V&V. These documentation requirements can assist in a 21 CFR Part 11 CGMP records / signature V&V as well. This training program will provide valuable assistance to all regulated companies in evaluating their existing or anticipated software V&V activities and documentation requirements, especially in light of the changes in the FDA's stance vis a vis industry compliance, past problems, and the growing cloud environment. It will help attendees understand and recognize the most common software V&V failings and their fixes. The webinar will allow attendees to develop and use a repeatable software V&V template for all software validation projects.

This webinar will discuss FDA requirements related to cloud computing. It will provide step-by-step recommendations for using 'clouds' from planning to reporting.

This webinar will discuss best practices for preparing for an international announced inspection as well as how to be always prepared for those in the US who may be inspected at any time. It also discusses the various roles of the persons who will be assisting during the inspection and suggests how to organize support personnel to aid in keeping the inspection going smoothly and identify and address issues before FDA sees them.

This webinar will teach attendees best practices for building a sustainable vendor qualification program for FDA regulated industries. It will discuss common pitfalls to avoid when qualifying vendors.

Some cell-based methods are multifaceted. This webinar will address development and validation of complex cell-based methods. It will discuss the selection of the method and the cell line, correlating the method with the pharmaceutical activity, the need for orthogonal methods, and the timeline for method validation.

Buying software is a fact of life for most companies. There is fierce competition in the market, with multiple software vendors trying to convince to buy their product. How do you determine whether to buy the software or having it built in house? Or which vendor to choose? And if you buy something, how do you determine whether to have it hosted? And are there any regulations that apply to this software? And if so, what are they?

This webinar will introduce attendees to key components of a computerized system validation master plan and set out the requirements for compliance as per FDA’s 21 CFR 11. It will detail several aspects such as requirements, design, configuration specifications, validation testing, procedures/archival/traceability, and best practices for system decommissioning/retirement as well.

This webinar will cover FDA’s current thinking on QRM and Guidance for Industry - Q9 Quality Risk Management, provide information to help understanding of QRM concepts, and applications. In addition, brief review of how ICH Q8, Q9, and Q10 work in coherence throughout product lifecycle.

This webinar will focus on most trustworthy open access resources. It will also provide tips on how to gain access to hard-to-find materials by paying high subscription or membership fees.

This webinar will provide an understanding of the organizational hierarchy of FDA and Health Canada, your regulatory and quality compliance obligations and the implications of the interactions between these two agencies on your organization.

When exporting outside the U.S., exporters must consider the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) provisions as it helps them understand what documents and procedures are needed in coordination with the transaction process. This training program will provide an in-depth explanation of FDA-regulated products that are exported from the United States to foreign countries. Also, it will address what export documentation must be used in the transportation of FDA-regulated products.

The webinar will describe application of SPC in manufacturing and QC and how to integrate SPC into the Quality System.

This webinar training will benefit manufacturers of manufactured products to achieve an effective, robust and compliant SOP and STM which will result in a cost effective and efficient manufacturing and testing of products. A well planned and written SOP or STM will reduce the incidence of out-of-specification (OOS) results, failure, product non-conformances, deviation and invalid assay investigations.

This webinar will help the attendee gain an understanding of the requirements of current USP <85> Bacterial Endotoxin Test (BET), European Pharmacopoeia (Chapter 2.6.14) and the Japanese Pharmacopoeia (General Tests, No. 4.01). The webinar will provide the attendee the ability to understand the different LAL testing methodologies, choosing the best test method applicable to the product type, criticality of the BET test result as it applies to the release of a cGMP manufactured product.
