SUMMARY:Recorded Webinar – Optimization of a Pharmaceutical Granulation Process using Quality by Design (QbD)
DESCRIPTION:Recorded Webinar – Optimization of a Pharmaceutical Granulation Process using Quality by Design (QbD)	\n	\n		\n	\n\n\nRecorded Webinar\nTime: 1 Hour\nCost: CAD$600+HST\n Buy Now!\n\n\n\nDistinguished Faculty\nAndy Tallevi Formulation/Process Consultant\nKeller Consulting\n\nAndy Tallevi is a Formulation/Process Consultant for Keller Consulting in Mississauga\, Ont.\, Canada. He has 28 years of industrial experience\, primarily in the Pharmaceutical industry. He currently consults clients in the Pharma and chemical industries assisting them with formulation and process issues and is an instructor at AAPS. \nMost recently Andy spent 1 year with Health Canada in the Bureau of Pharmaceutical Sciences reviewing and evaluating generic submissions and making recommendations for approval or refusal of Notice of Compliance for the Bureau. He has gained significant insights to the regulatory requirements and expectations of the drug substance and drug product sections of a submission filing to Health Canada. In addition\, he has an excellent understanding of the regulatory requirements for pharmaceutical development\, the GMP requirements expected for pharmaceutical manufacture and has assisted former employers numerous times in audits by Health Canada and the FDA. \nPrior to this\, Andy worked as a Senior Pharmaceutics Scientist for GlaxoSmithKline in Canada. During his 18 years with the company he led many projects developing new chemical entities in varying dosage forms. His specialty is solid oral dosage forms. He and his team successfully formulated immediate release tablets as well as many controlled release versions of GSK new chemical entities. He has experience with conventional matrix approaches as well as proprietary technologies such as Procise® and DiffCORE®. He has been responsible for overseeing the manufacture of clinical supplies of NCEs both in Canada and at other GSK sites in Europe and the US. \nAndy also has a solid understanding of material properties required of excipients and actives for successful formulation and for robust processes. He is well versed on particle sizing and powder flow. He holds a US patent on a novel approach for the assessment of the flow of pharmaceutical powders. \nPrior to leaving GSK he was heavily involved in a company-wide effort to strengthen its processes by Design for Manufacture through the use of PAT and experimental design for which he was the lead user in Mississauga. \nPrior to GlaxoSmithKline Andy worked as a scientist for Unilever developing products in the health\, beauty and detergent industries. He graduated from the University of Toronto with a B.Sc. major in Chemistry. \nAndy lives in Mississauga with his wife and 2 children. \nCourse Overview\nFor many years pharmaceutical companies have placed considerable effort in developing robust manufacturing processes to assure the highest quality products\, minimize defects\, eliminate rejects and conform to all Regulatory requirements. These processes are developed by scientists using past knowledge and 1 variable-at-a-time experiments and then subjected to process validation. Unfortunately\, more often than not\, even validated processes fail. \nAt the core of this problem is the fact that full process knowledge has not been acquired and all critical factors have not been identified. This implies that the manufacturing process can drift into a region not fully explored and produce an output that falls outside acceptable limits. \nFor the past decade and more the pharmaceutical industry\, supported by Regulators\, has been looking to Quality by Design (QbD) to remedy this problem. In pharmaceutical manufacturing the concept is to carry out experimentation and analysis using multivariate statistical techniques to determine all the factors influencing the process (critical factors)\, determining the complete region around those factors that produce a given output (design space) and then determining the optimal portion of the design space that produces the desired output within limits (optimization). \nIn this webinar participants will learn about:\n\nBasic concepts of Quality by Design (QbD)\nAdvantages of QbD over traditional 1 variable-at-a-time experimentation\nStatistical experimental design\nCritical factors\nFactor interactions\nDesign space\nInterpretation of data derived from QbD\nA real life example of QbD applied to a pharmaceutical granulation process to fully understand the critical factors and the optimal operating range within the design space for those factors\n\nWho Should Attend\nThe webinar is suitable for those who are seeking to get a basic understanding of the concept of Quality by Design and its application to pharmaceutical processing including personnel in Production\, Quality Assurance\, Quality Control\, Validation and Development.

SUMMARY:Recorded Webinar – GMP Compliant Temperature Mapping
DESCRIPTION:Recorded Webinar – GMP Compliant Temperature Mapping\n\n\n\nRecorded Webinar\nTime: 1.5 Hours\nCost: CAD$600+HST\nBuy Now!\n\n\n\nDistinguished Faculty\nMs. Deborah Gordon B. Sc\n\n  \nInstructor and Program Chair\nAAPS \n\nDeborah Gordon\, B. Sc.\, Dip. Pharm. QA\, began her career in the Sciences as a Forensic Analyst working on crime scenes and in the lab\, analyzing evidence to be presented in court. Her attention to detail\, which was critical to crime scene investigation\, eventually led her to the Quality Assurance field. Her experience as a Forensic Analyst paved the way for her career growth. In 2008\, Deborah completed her training as an Auditor by successfully passing the American Society for Quality Auditor examination\, (ASQ\, CQA). \nDeborah has 16 years of experience in the pharmaceutical industry\, including 15 years of auditing experience. Her experience includes Quality Systems for storage\, distribution\, wholesaling\, packaging/labeling and manufacturing of pharmaceuticals. She has done extensive work in temperature mapping of warehouses\, fridges and freezers. As a leader in pharmaceutical quality assurance\, she also enjoys the challenge of auditing and teaching. \nAbstract\nHealth Canada Guide 0069\, Temperature Control of Drug Products during Storage and Transportation requires drug products to be “transported\, handled and stored in a manner that mitigates the risk of exposure to temperatures outside labelled storage conditions; potentially impacting the safety\, quality and effectiveness of the drug product…..fabricators\, packagers/labelers\, distributors\, importers and wholesalers are additionally responsible for the appropriate handling\, storage and distribution of drugs according to C.02.015 of the Food and Drug Regulations”. Other Regulatory bodies such as the FDA also require the temperature of storage areas to be maintained in accordance with labelled storage conditions in order to maintain drug safety\, quality and efficacy. \nGMP Temperature Mapping should be completed on a periodic basis\, for example every three years in order to demonstrate continuing compliance. Temperature Mapping should also be completed when significant changes have been made to the equipment and storage areas which could impact air circulation or loading or unexplainable variability in temperature occurs outside of the specifications. \nTopics to be covered\nThis webinar will assist Companies in understanding the Regulatory requirements for conducting a GMP Compliant Temperature Mapping of their facility. Participants will learn how to complete a risk assessment\, document a Temperature Mapping Protocol and a Summary Report. \nThe course details will include: \n\n	Definition\n	Temperature Mapping Introduction\n	Why should you comply?\n	What is a Quality Product?\n	How do we achieve Compliance\n	Environmental Controls\n	Application of Controls\n	Selection of data loggers\n	When should temperature mapping be completed?\n	Audit and Risk Assessment\n	Temperature Mapping Protocol\n	Methodology\n	Review and Data Analysis\n	Summary Report\n	Impact of not completing Temperature Mapping\n	Final Advice\n\nWho should attend\nWholesalers\, Distributors\, Importers\, Manufacturers\, Quality Assurance Directors and Managers\, Operations Managers who have direct responsibility for Quality Management; Quality Unit\, Regulatory Affairs\, Consultants\, Auditors.

SUMMARY:Recorded Webinar – Cannabis Retail Application Process and Requirements
DESCRIPTION:Recorded Webinar – Cannabis Retail Application Process and Requirements	\n	\n		\n	\n\n\nRecorded Webinar\nTime: 2 Hours\nCost: CAD$600+HST\n Buy Now!\n\n\n\n \nAbstract\nThe Cannabis Act establishes that provincial\, territorial and municipal governments will determine the framework for the retail distribution of cannabis. As a result of each province determining their own retail model\, a patchwork system has formed across Canada with different rules and regulations depending on what province and municipality you plan to operate in. Opportunities to establish private cannabis retail businesses will be available in Ontario\, Alberta\, Saskatchewan\, Manitoba\, Yukon\, Nunavut\, Newfoundland and Labrador. Applications for a Cannabis Retail Licence will be primarily handled by the liquor and gaming control boards of each province.  \nAlthough the application process in each province will be slightly different in terms of store\, security\, reporting and application requirements\, best practices and what to expect when submitting an application can still be deduced. Even without full clarity on what regulations will look like in Ontario\, many potential retailers are already trying to prepare themselves to ensure that they will successfully obtain the required licence(s) and authorization. \nThis webinar discusses the application process including the form and manner for submitting an application for a Cannabis Retail Licence in Ontario and the information that is required to be submitted. \nWebinar Outline\n\nCannabis Retail Landscape Across the Provinces\nBackground\n\nCannabis Licence Act\nOCS/OCRC\nAlcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario\n\nCannabis Tracking and Licensing System (CTLS)\nPerson Interested In (Shareholders\, Directors\, Officers\, Control\, Financing)\nRetail Operator Licence\n\nEligibility\nRestrictions\nScope\nIssuance\nRefusal\n\nRetail Store Authorization\n\nMunicipal Zoning Restrictions\, Opt In/Out\nStore Restrictions\nLP Restrictions\nEligibility\nRefusal\nPublic Notice\nIssuance\n\nRetail Manager Licence\n\nFunctions and Responsibilities\nEligibility\nRefusal\n\nAdditional Conditions\n\nOngoing Sale\nUse of Seal\nMinimum Pricing\nRenewals\n\nOperational Restrictions\n\nSourcing Product\nSelling to Minors\nSelling to Intoxicated Persons\nPurchase Limits\nRecorded Sales\nOnline Sales\nUnsold Cannabis\nDiversion\n\nEnforcement\n\nRevocations and Suspensions\nHearings\nInquiries and Investigations\n\nLeasing and Rental Agreements\n\nSite & building information\nOntario Building Code\nRent Negotiations (Security Deposits\, Commencement Date\, Licence Issuance)\nThird Parties (Existing Lenders\, Existing Tenants\, Mortgages\, Insurance\, Non-disturbance)\nEnhanced provisions\n\nSecurity Requirements\n\nPhysical Access (Perimeter)\nAlarm System\nCCTV\nPanic Button\nEmployee Safety\n\nStore Requirements\n\nPoint-of-Sale System\nReceiving Area\nCustomer Area\nStorage Area\nProduct Displays\n\nFinancial Disclosure\nBusiness Plans\nProduct Promotions\n\nSignage\, Branding and Advertising\nProhibited Promotion (Lifestyle\, Price and Availability\, Testimonial\, Lifestyle/Emotion\, False or Misleading)\nEducational/Informational Promotion and Marketing\nBrand-Preference\nSales Representatives\n\n\nWho Should Attend\nCannabis industry professionals including employers and employees\, those who are interested in obtaining a cannabis retail licence\, working in a cannabis retail store or pro.

SUMMARY:Recorded Webinar – How to Write Effective Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs)
DESCRIPTION:Recorded Webinar – How to Write Effective Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs)	\n	\n		\n	\n\n\nRecorded Webinar\nTime: 2 Hours\nCost: CAD$600+HST\n Buy Now!\n\n\n\nAbstract:\nRegulatory Agencies require written procedures for all systems and operations which impact the quality and safety of pharmaceutical products. SOPs provide the main forum for the documentation of a Company’s systems\, processes and operations. SOPs are therefore the most popular documents audited by Regulatory Agencies during GMP inspections to ensure they reflect current practices that follow regulatory requirements and they are followed as written. \nEffective SOPs lead a company not only to consistency\, quality and compliance but also to executing efficient business operations. Often SOPs are written without consultation with the end user or by someone who has good writing skills but little experience of the topic. They can include too much information\, making them difficult to follow or too little detail causing them to be ambiguous. Such SOPs can lead to audit observations that the SOPs had not been followed or did not reflect current or acceptable practices. \nThis course is designed to provide helpful information and essential training towards achieving effective SOPs. It includes topics relevant to the writing\, formatting\, execution and management of SOPs and relates to the role which SOPs play in achieving the required level of compliance and quality.  \nCourse Outline\n\nWhat is an SOP?\nWhy do we need SOPs?\nWhen do we need SOPs?\nRoles and Responsibilities\nSections of an SOP\nWriting Tips\nHow SOPs are Written\nChange Control\nMaintenance\nSOP Workshop\n\nNote: Course outline is subject to change without notice. Please check back regularly for updates. \nWho Should Attend\nThis 2-hour webinar is targeted at anyone involved in the organization\, writing or management of SOPs required for GMP\, GPP\, GVP or GCP purposes.
