How to run human factors studies

One of the most common reasons why regulatory submissions for medical devices and combination products fail is due to deficiencies in the human factors testing. FDA and Notified Bodies are demanding high quality testing work. But many manufacturers struggle to know how to do the testing, and there are very few really experienced practitioners around from which to learn the skills.

Now, for the first time, you can learn from someone with over 20 years of experience in planning and running human factors studies in the UK, US, Europe and Australia.

• How can I develop my moderating skills?  
• How can I find the right participants?
• How do I run a validation study in the US?
• What do I do if the participant is being difficult?
• How do I find a good recruiter?
• What do I do if things go wrong?

We've just unveiled a brand new course on the implementation of Human Factors Studies.

The emphasis in this course is on HOW to plan and run human factors studies for medical devices, combination products and diagnostic devices. The approach is down-to-earth, practical and based on real-world examples of best practice.

Perhaps you are a small manufacturer who wants to do the testing in the most cost-effective way; to get it right first time, quickly and affectively. Or you might be in a larger team wanting to build the skills base.

So whether you are just starting out, or whether you want to take your testing skills to the next level, this is the right course for you.
