Objectives

In this Live Online Training you will learn how to introduce and maintain your CAPA system in quality control in accordance with GMP requirements. You will get to know how CAPA can be integrated into the QM system and which specific steps should be initiated to reduce the error rate in the laboratory.

You will get an overview of how you can use selected CAPA measures in quality control to help avoid errors and thus increase efficiency in analysis.

Background

The processing of laboratory errors is a legally mandatory but usually very time-consuming task in many laboratories. Expensive resources are tied up with troubleshooting and the implementation of repeat analyzes, which in turn reduces the efficiency of the laboratory.

In view of the growing cost pressure and the high complexity of many analytical devices and procedures, this is particularly problematic, because the increasing load encourages additional errors and thus causes a situation that is becoming increasingly difficult to resolve. The required quality of quality control can only be maintained or regained with suitable systematic procedures.

In the more recent regulations, CAPA is expressly required, so that the inspection relevance for it has increased steadily in recent years.

Target Group

This Live Online Training is specifically designed for
  • laboratory managers,
  • GMP assistants,
  • QA officer,
who have not yet developed systematic CAPA processes or are in the process of establishing or optimizing them.
Employees and managers from the pharmaceutical industry are also addressed, especially from the following laboratory areas:
  • incoming goods inspection,
  • in-process and finished goods control,
  • analytical development,
  • active ingredient and excipient testing,
  • and contract/service laboratories.
Finally, the seminar is also developed for employees and Managers from quality assurance units.
