Validation Certificate

Validation in the pharmaceutical and medical device industry is defined as the documented act of demonstrating that a procedure, process, and activity will consistently lead to the expected results. It often includes the qualification of systems and equipment. It is a requirement for Good Manufacturing Practices and other regulatory standards


Project Management Certificate

Project management is the key to effective drug development. Given the costs of development and the critical issue of 'time to market', project management techniques - appropriately used - are a key factor in bringing a drug to market. This course focuses on the most relevant project management tools and techniques and how to rigorously apply them in the pharmaceutical industry. It covers the technical, strategic and human aspects of project management, including contingency planning, simulation techniques and different project options.

Complete with decision-tree diagrams, checklists, exercises and workshop, this course provides clinical research, drug development and quality assurance managers or directors tools they need for successfully managing pharmaceutical projects.

Quality Auditing Certificate

To ensure quality, all pharmaceutical manufacturers are required to establish and implement an effective pharmaceutical Quality Assurance (QA) system, including the active participation of the management and personnel of different services involved. To assess the effectiveness of this QA system and ensure that it follows Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP), regular audits must be performed. Audits may be performed by the manufacturer on itself (internal), or on its vendors (external). Alternatively, audits may be conducted on a manufacturer by its customers or by a regulatory body (regulatory).

The program consists of the following courses

  1. Introduction to Auditing
  2. Advanced Auditing Techniques
  3. Technical Writing and Scientific Communications

HPLC Certificate

High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) is an analytical technique for the separation and determination of organic and inorganic compounds in any samples especially biological, pharmaceutical, food, environmental, and industrial. HPLC is a popular method of analysis because it is easy to learn and use and is not limited by the volatility or stability of the sample compound. As such, modern HPLC has many applications including separation, identification, purification, and quantification of various compounds. Courses Include

  1. Introduction to High Performance Liquid Chromatography
  2. High Performance Liquid Chromatography – Assays and Impurities
  3. High Performance Liquid Chromatography – Method Validation and Technology Transfer
  4. High Performance Liquid Chromatography – Method Development

Pharmaceutical Laboratory Certificate

Laboratory is the nerve center of the pharmaceutical company brining products to the market. As such regulatory agencies worldwide, expend much time and effort in inspecting the pharmaceutical laboratories and their operations to assure that analyses performed are performed well, and are trustworthy. Audit of pharmaceutical laboratories by regulatory agencies such as FDA has revealed many deficiencies and has become one of the primary causes of more companies failing FDA inspections. Courses Include

  1. Introduction to Pharmaceutical Laboratory Testing
  2. Pharmaceutical Laboratory – Intermediate
  3. Pharmaceutical Testing – Advanced Level
  4. Introduction to Pharmaceutical Dissolution Testing
  5. Pharmaceutical Dissolution Testing – Advanced Level
