Course Overview
The manufacture of pharmaceutical products requires the establishment and implementation of an effective ‘Pharmaceutical Quality System’ (PQS). The concepts of QA, GMP and Quality Control (QC), which are inter-related, form the basis of such a system for the manufacture of pharmaceutical products from initial development, through clinical phases to commercial and supply.
This seminar has been designed to provide a highly interactive introduction to Quality Management for managers and will provide the opportunity to share and consolidate the key elements of the Pharmaceutical Quality System (PQS). It will describe the roles and responsibilities of middle and senior management in the PQS and provide practical advice and guidance on how to ensure legal and operational responsibilities are fulfilled.
The seminar will also consider the importance of effective leadership and how leaders demonstrate the behavioural standards required for an effective “quality culture” that supports the PQS.
The seminar will also provide a comprehensive overview of the essential principles and requirements of the “Orange Guide” and other relevant regulatory requirements.
