Core content developed during the start-up of a pharmaceutical plant

This program was developed on-site by a team of biochemists and senior chemical engineers, working within an engineering consultancy during the start-up of a pharmaceutical plant to fill in the regulatory, risk management, GAMP, qualification, and validation knowledge gaps in its own new scientists and technicians.

You will write a technical report

You will write a 3,000-word technical report about the systems needed to consistently manufacture safe medicines and devices for patients. This is fundamental knowledge for any professional working in this sector

You will complete 7 quality risk management (QRM) workshops

QRM tools are crucial in the pharmaceutical manufacturing industry. They allow companies to

  • manage potential risks that could compromise the quality of drugs
  • identify and prioritize risks, assess their potential impact on product quality
  • build product quality into the manufacturing process

We will guide you through the step-by-step process of using the seven different QRM tools. This is a fundamental skill for any professional working in this sector and a key outcome of this program.
