Choose between two 3-day GMP education courses according to your field of interest: ICH Q7 Compliance for APIs Manufactured by Chemical Synthesis or ICH Q7 Compliance for APIs Manufactured by Cell Culture/Fermentation.

These courses will explain the contents of ICH Q7 step by step and give practical advice on how to fulfill these requirements. For example:

  • At which stage of production will GMP compliance be necessary and how can it be verified?
  • How to comply with GMP hot topics like process validation, reprocessing/reworking, equipment qualification, failure investigation, etc.?
  • Which Features are necessary; what is nice to have? Which procedures are available for regulatory submission of information on APIs and on post-approval changes to their manufacture?

With this programme, you have the unique opportunity to combine your ICH Q7 Training Course on Chemical Synthesis or Cell Culture/ Fermentation with an ICH Q7 Auditor Training Course. This training course will inform you about the techniques and skills to be used during an Audit. The number of participants is strictly limited.
