Create a Process Validation Protocol and Write a 1,500-Word Technical Report
As part of your End of Module Assignments:
- Analyze how the regulatory framework for pharmaceutical manufacturing has evolved over recent years.
- Discuss how these regulatory changes will transform pharmaceutical manufacturing from an art (relying on operator intuition) to a science (data-driven, controlled processes).
Additionally, you will document the process of making a simple product as a Process Validation Protocol. The first three questions will guide you in defining the ingredients, equipment, process steps, and testing methods to ensure the product meets the required standards.
You will then create a formal protocol that includes:
- Objectives, Scope, and Responsibilities
- Manufacturing SOP
- Training for process consistency
By documenting this simple process, you will demonstrate your understanding of Process Validation, analogous to ensuring pharmaceutical manufacturing consistently meets quality standards.
Enroll in this course to learn…
- Process Validation Protocol – Generate the protocol & execute a process validation study.
- Validation Master Plan (VMP) – Develop a VMP for a typical product life cycle.
- Critical Process Parameters – Identify the CPP’s and Critical Quality Attributes (CQA’s).
- Audit of Suppliers – Audit suppliers & vendors’ quality plans and documentation.
- Cleaning Validation – Develop a cleaning validation strategy and cleaning validation report.
- Quality Plan – Quality management systems and the quality manual.
You’ll produce a number of deliverables throughout the course including…
- 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.
End of Module Assignments
- Analyze the evolution of the pharmaceutical regulatory framework and discuss how these changes shift manufacturing from art to science.
- Document a product-making process as a Process Validation Protocol, including objectives, scope, SOP, and training, demonstrating your understanding of Process Validation.
And take the following skills and knowledge back to the workplace…
You’ll be able to:
- Understand and apply ICH guidelines (Q8, Q9, Q10, Q11) to ensure compliance with global regulatory standards in validation and quality management.
- Develop and implement a Validation Master Plan (VMP), ensuring structured and compliant validation processes across different stages of production.
- Participate in audit suppliers and vendors for compliance with quality and validation standards, ensuring that external partners meet required specifications.
- Execute process validation protocols, focusing on critical quality attributes (CQAs) and critical process parameters (CPPs), ensuring robust validation of manufacturing processes.
- Participate in conducting cleaning validation and ensure proper health and safety practices at the operator/product interface, preventing contamination and ensuring process integrity.
Entry Requirements
- You have worked in a GMP Regulated Pharmaceutical or Medical Device manufacturing environment.
- You have a solid understanding of the fundamentals of qualification and validation.
