Don’t just learn about CSV… learn to do CSV

Would you expect to get fit by watching a personal trainer work out?
Would you expect to learn to drive a car by watching an instructor take a drive?
Would you expect to learn a new language by watching others speak it?

Of course not.

And you don’t learn Computer System Validation by sitting through a lecture – or guessing the right answer on a quiz.

You learn it by doing it.

Write a 6,000-Word Technical Report

For your End of Module Assignment, you will replicate what your validation manager would ask you to do in a real work setting.

You will write a 6,000-word technical report on a GxP computerized system application of your choice, to present to senior management.

Your report will help management make critical decisions about the electronic data generated and managed by the system, (e.g. will it meet the findings from a previous FDA/EMA audit, or to prepare for an upcoming audit, etc).

You can choose a project from your work. Your report will outline:

  • Identify and describe typical business and GMP functions
  • Schematically represent typical architectural components
  • Describe a general approach to achieving compliance and fitness for intended use over the entire lifecycle from:
    1. Concept
    2. Project
    3. Operation
    4. Retirement

Prove your Expertise at a Job Interview

Take your completed report on a GxP computerized system to a job interview to demonstrate your expertise.

This Computer System Validation Course is right for you if…

  • You work with regulated data and have to ensure the following GxP computerized system applications are in compliance with regulatory guidelines such as 21 CFR Part 11 or EU Annex 11.

    Process Control Software

    • PLC for Controlled Packaging Equipment
    • Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA)
    • Distributed Control System (DCS)

    Commercial off-the-shelf (CTOS) or Software as a service (SasS) Software

    • Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS)
    • Clinical Trial Monitoring Systems
    • Chromatography Data System (CDS)
    • Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) Systems
    • Manufacturing Execution System (MES)
    • Batch Record System
    • Building Management Systems (BMS)
    • Cloud base software services
    • Spreadsheets

  • You work in validation, automation or instrumentation and want to extend you or your team’s role, or your consultancy’s offer into Computer System Validation projects.

  • You want to turn your years of practical work experience into a Certification.

  • 14-year track record. We’ve been delivering this program ONLINE for over 14 years.

You don’t need to “write code” to work in CSV

One of the single biggest misconceptions of working in Computer System Validation is that you need to know how to code, have a computer science background, or be able to program a PLC.

This is not true as CSV is about managing data accuracy, reliability and integrity, not programming.

However, you do need solid experience using the GxP computer process you will be validating and understand its functional layout and user interface.

Enroll in this CSV course to learn…

  • The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulations such as 21 CFR 211.68, 21 CFR 11, and international regulations (EudraLex Volume 4 — Annex 11, ICH, PICs) and guidance regarding CSV and which apply to your company
  • How the CSV process fits into your Software Life Cycle and the purpose of each validation deliverable
  • The principles of your software quality assurance and how to manage the auditors’ expectations around its key components
  • The software validation life cycle from design, through construction, installation and live start-up
  • The regulations governing the use of electronic records and signatures in a regulated environment
  • The methodology and implementation model for a risk-based approach to CSV

You’ll produce a number of deliverables throughout the course including…

  • Determine the end-user supplier activities during the lifecycle of a computerized system
  • Identify where you would use risk-based decision-making throughout the lifecycle of a computerized system
  • Prepare a configuration management process flow diagram and identify where to use change control
  • Define the content of typical logs and accompanying records for both incident management and corrective and preventive action (CAPA)
  • Complete 8-question booklets (one for every week’s worth of content) which will summarise what you have learnt for the week and ensure you retain and understand the information.
  • Write a 6,000-word technical report to present to senior management on a GxP computerized system application of your choice.

And take the following skills and knowledge back to work…

  • Be able to apply the FDA and international regulations to your current projects
  • Use Risk-based decision when making an assessment to see what software does or does not require validation, ensure critical risks are identified and the correct level of validation is carried out.
  • Create key validation deliverables, including validation plans, requirements specifications, test plans, validation tests (IQ, OQ, PQ), trace matrices, test summaries, and validation reports

What is Computer System Validation (CSV)?

Image showing Computer System Validation (CSV) Lifecycle

Computer system validation is a process used to ensure (and document) that all computer-based systems will produce information or data that meet predefined requirements. The pharma and med device sectors use computer systems to operate and record a range of regulated processes and activities from clinical trials, manufacturing, product testing, distribution, storage, logistics, etc so it’s critical that these systems can be relied upon to:

  • produce data accurately and consistently
  • create an indelible electronic data trail that is transparent, traceable and tamper-proof
  • store those electronic data records in a way that is safe, secure and can stand the test of time

And that the standard operating procedures (SOPs) and processes are put in place to manage these systems.

In addition, the CSV process is used when replacing paper records and handwritten signatures with electronic data records and electronic signatures in highly regulated environments that impact public health and safety such as the pharmaceutical and medical device industries.

Week 9 & 10 Complete an End of Module Assignment

Complete a 6,000-word technical report written at a Masters/Graduate level, on a GxP system of your choice. You can choose a project from work for this! The assignment should outline the controls that have been put in place on an existing/new/upgraded system, to generate and manage electronic data from the system for the benefit of the patients who use the products manufactured/approved/released by the system.

It should be written for a senior management audience so as to give them the necessary information they need to make informed management decisions about the electronic data generated and managed by the system, (e.g. will it meet the findings from a previous FDA audit, or to prepare for an upcoming one, etc) to support the manufacturing of safe and effective medicines and medical devices for patients.

The structure of the report should include details on the LifeCycle of your chosen data management system, to confirm your understanding and reflect your ability to apply your learning from the CSV programme to a real-world situation:

  1. Concept of the chosen data management system, including what the original URS wanted to achieve in terms of data generation and management, the risk management assessment to support the critical decisions made in the choices that were taken in the design/specification of the data management, the document control that was put in place to record the data generated for future audit.
  2. The project itself has to be defined, using tools like the V-model to describe the steps taken in the project to gather data and how the IQ-OQ-PQ phases ensured that the system installed (or to be installed) is fit for purpose to manage/control the electronic data generated (and how it met or modified the requirements of the URS).
  3. The learnings (or expected learnings) from the Operation of the system have to be described noting key data management areas such as CAPA’s and Maintenance, and the systems used to ensure that nothing crashes and no data is lost.
  4. The preparations for the Retirement of the system at some time in the future have to be described, noting how the electronic data can be migrated to another system (or deleted).
The assignment must demonstrate:
  • Your understanding of how the electronic data from the system is managed to make sure it is transparent, robust and tamperproof, that it is stored so that it stands the test of time,
  • That the systems and procedures have been put in place to ensure that nothing crashes and no data is lost, and that the necessary ERES considerations have been included.

You will produce a number of deliverables during the course including:

  • Determine the end user supplier activities during the lifecycle of a computerized system
  • Identify where you would use risk based decision making throughout the lifecycle of a computerized system
  • Prepare a Configuration Management Process Flow Diagram and identify where to use Change Control
  • Define the content of typical logs and accompanying records for both incident Management and corrective and preventive action (CAPA)
  • Determine suitable risk controls when assessing electronic records and electronic signatures.
