ISPE In Person Training Courses

Through lecture and group exercises this course illustrates how quality systems work, the purpose of the different elements, how they connect to each other and how to recognize and transfer knowledge/connectivity throughout the organization. The diagram below from ICH Q10, covers the product life cycle for a PQS/QMS system and all aspects will be covered by this course.

GAMP® AI guidance provides a pragmatic and effective framework for achieving AI-enabled computerized systems that are fit for intended use and aligned with current regulatory expectations. This course introduces participants to the requirements for AI-enabled computerized systems and internationally recognized methods of meeting those requirements.

This course will focus on aseptic processing and quality management regarding pharmaceutical technology. The training course will provide ample time in clean rooms for various practical exercises, allowing participants to engage in hands-on operations. These sessions will occur in the clean rooms of the EASE platform.

This advanced, hands-on training opportunity will implement the global body of knowledge of ISPE to advance the understanding of drug substance and drug product manufacturing, utilizing the commercial scale operational aspects of the Biomanufacturing Training and Education Center (BTEC - located on North Carolina State Centennial Campus in Raleigh, NC) through a series of immersive and hands-on exercises that address current, real world manufacturing challenges.

Worldwide Regulatory expectations and guidance as led by FDA and the EU have stated that all Pharmaceutical Quality Systems should apply a QRM (Quality Risk Management) approach. Through interactive workshops, this course will explain and apply the science and risk-based approach to integrated lifecycle Commissioning & Qualification by conducting verification of systems, equipment and facilities in accordance with the recently issued 2nd Edition Guide, ICH documents Q8 (R2), Q9, and Q10, current Regulatory Guidance, industry best practices, and ASTM E2500.

The importance and amount of data being generated to ensure product quality and patient safety continues to grow, and proper controls around that data continue to be a subject of regulatory scrutiny. Regulatory agencies across the world are repeatedly citing data integrity issues. As a result, industry guidance and enforcement strategies are evolving. Regulatory concerns and warning letters have extended to all areas of the pharmaceutical, biotech, and medical device business, including manufacturing, development, clinical, pharmacovigilance and other areas of the product lifecycle. This course will cover data integrity, electronic records and signatures, and the compliant operation of GxP Computerized Systems to provide the tools and techniques to implement proper controls for data to ensure the integrity and validity of the information throughout the data lifecycle.

GAMP® AI guidance provides a pragmatic and effective framework for achieving AI-enabled computerized systems that are fit for intended use and aligned with current regulatory expectations. This course introduces participants to the requirements for AI-enabled computerized systems and internationally recognized methods of meeting those requirements.

This classroom or online course has been updated to include the new revised GAMP® 5 Second Edition as well as a fundamental discussion on framing the application of AI/ML in regulated spaces. This fundamental course introduces participants to regulatory requirements for computerized systems in the pharmaceutical, biotech, or medical device industry and explores tried, tested, and internationally recognized methods of meeting those requirements.

This course provides a comprehensive understanding of biotech manufacturing processes - what makes biopharmaceutical processes different from small molecules. Course content explores the underlying principles of proteins and cells to provide the foundation for how and why processes manufacture therapeutic proteins. The course studies commonly used manufacturing process operations including cell culture and fermentation; harvest and recovery; viral removal and inactivation; purification processes such as tangential flow filtration, centrifugation, size exclusion, and adsorptive chromatography.

The course will cover qualification and process validation, from EU and US perspectives, considering both small and large molecule aspects, plus it will include a half day to consider qualification and process validation for ATMPs.
