Laboratory Regulations and Guidance Training - Live Webinars, Recordings & CDs

This training program will highlight mistakes often made when corrective and preventative actions are not clearly identified and applied during a manufactured product sterility test failure investigation because an ineffective investigational procedure and tool was used to conduct a sterility test failure investigation. The webinar will also illustrate how avoiding such common mistakes will ensure that these types of products meet the sterility requirements USP <71> and other regulatory guidelines applicable to finished products, bulk drug substance, raw materials or excipients.

This training program will discuss in details the new requirements of ISO/IEC 17015:2017 laboratory accreditation standard and their impact on quality management system. It will provide you with an overview of the salient differences and similarities between the old and the new standard and provide advice on what you must do to meet the requirements each of the elements.

The webinar will cover the federal regulatory approach to regulating laboratory-developed tests including the role of CLIA, the rationale for and opposition to direct FDA oversight, the goal of possible federal legislation and the prospects for future action by the FDA and/or Congress.

This training program will discuss how, in sterile compounding, aseptic technique is contributing to the prevention of microbiological contamination. It provides sterility, safety, and efficacy to the sterile product, especially various injections for patients. In this course, cleaning, gowning and proper methods of contamination control will be reviewed along with why clean rooms are designed the way they are.

This webinar focuses on the verification and validation planning and execution of software, after basic developmental testing and de-bug. It includes COTS (commercial off-the-shelf) and the growing field of "cloud"-based software. A suggested FDA model (mandated for submissions) will be evaluated, implemented, with V&V documentation and test case examples. Also attendees will learn the most recent issues the FDA has had in this area, and remediation approaches.

This training on using the QbD approach to analytical method lifecycle is designed to provide participants with a lifecycle approach to developing and validating analytical methods and comply with compendial requirements. The webinar presenter will use case studies to illustrate each stage in the process.

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.

This training program on applicable regulations pertaining to clean room environmental monitoring (EM) programs will discuss the basics of setting a robust and effective EM program. The course will also detail the relationship between an EM Excursion Program and CAPA and the four phases of clean room transitional monitoring.

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.

In this webinar attendees will learn the key issues and sample requirements (collection methods, sample inhibition and sample volume) for molecular diagnostics and the tools (PCR, DNA fluorescent assays & NGS assays) you need to deal with your laboratory challenges in clinical laboratory.

This training on assay validation will teach you how to validate an assay for clinical diagnostics and transition the assay into the clinical laboratory for diagnostic use.

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 in detail the fundamentals of data integrity including the FDA guidance document. It will teach attendees practical steps to identify and avoid data integrity issues in pharmaceutical laboratory.

This webinar provides understanding of the requirements for residual solvents addressed in ICH, USP, EP and JP and focus on the recent changes to USP <467>. It will also help attendees utilize strategies to minimize the testing and resources required to meet the requirements.

This webinar will explain the final version of USP Chapter <1224> and FDA guidance for conducting and documenting method transfer between laboratories and sites, and provide tools for effective implementation.

Amid several other critical discussions, this training program will detail FDA and international requirements for system suitability testing; SST in comparison with equipment qualification and quality control sample analysis; critical parameters for SST in EP and USP; recommendations for implementing the updated <621>; and developing an SOP for system testing.

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.

This training on laboratory accreditation will focus on ISO/IEC 17025 requirements. Attendees will learn how to develop and maintain a quality management system to ensure compliance with the international laboratory accreditation standard.

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?
