Computer System Validation Training

Course code: CSV01

Overview

This one day course is designed for people who need an introduction to computer system validation within a GMP-regulated industry.

As the Australian Code of Good Manufacturing Practice for Medicinal Products states;

"It is a requirement of GMP that manufacturers identify what validation work is needed to prove control of the critical aspects of their particular operations. Significant changes to the facilities, the equipment and the processes, which may affect the quality of the product, should be validated. A risk assessment approach should be used to determine the scope and extent of validation."

Course Duration & Location

One day, on your site or at an offsite location.

PharmOut's training courses can be delivered anywhere in the world. If your site is not in a city we have an office in then we ask you to cover the travel costs from our nearest office. You'll save the costs associated with your staff travelling to be trained, so it becomes cost effective if you have several people needing training.
