Stability Testing of Pharmaceuticals and Biopharmaceuticals

Very patient and understanding of everyone's different experience in the industry. Very good course, lots of detail provided, all questions were answered with detail and understanding. I enjoyed the examples provided for the principles (e.g. what went right and what went wrong). Also enjoyed the collaborations with other participants.

Stability Testing of Pharmaceuticals and Biopharmaceuticals

The content of the webinar was good, thorough. Paul answered any questions which I asked. With clear and concise reasoning. He made it easy to follow and not boring for someone with 4 years stability testing experience and basic knowledge. This has given me the tools I need to go back and hopefully improve the stability studies for the future. I enjoyed, I feel like I'm better prepared to justify the requirements of a stability study to my company. With an understanding of how to reduce costs and apply it to the industry I am in.

My overall opinion is that this course was very worthwhile and well taught. I feel as though I learned a lot but I have learned in a way in which I will be able to apply this knowledge confidently to my job.
