Outline:


Module overview
An outline of the module's scope and objectives, and notes on terminology.

CAPA principles
In this session we explain what a CAPA system is and why it is important. We explain the differences among correction, containment, corrective action, and preventive action. We specify sources of information about manufacturing problems, and we emphasize the importance of documentation of a CAPA system.

CAPA procedure
Problems that may give rise to CAPAs are best tackled by systematically progressing through a number of stages of procedure. In this session we set out the typical stages of a CAPA procedure, along with the questions to be addressed and the actions taken at each stage.

Root cause analysis
Root cause analysis is a rigorous approach to finding the deepest causes of problems. In this session we emphasize the value of applying CAPA to root causes rather than their symptoms. We set out the stages of a typical analysis, and we list examples of tools for finding causes and studying trends.

Tracking, escalation, and trending
One of the most common findings of regulatory inspectors is the lack of effective and timely closure of CAPA reports. In this short session we emphasize the importance of tracking the progress of CAPA procedures, escalating issues, and reviewing trends in the CAPA system.

Assessment
Multiple-choice mastery assessment.

Certification Requirements: To earn a certificate, students must complete the entire course and pass an online, multiple-choice final assessment within 12 months of enrollment. Upon meeting these requirements, a certificate of completion is instantly available in PDF format.

Biopharma Institute's online training provides immediate access after enrollment. Students receive their username, password, and instructions via email directly after registering. The final assessment can be attempted as many times as necessary to achieve a passing score. Once the course is successfully completed, the certificate is generated instantly in an encrypted PDF format, featuring a watermark, unique validation code, and QR verification barcode.

Training achievements can be verified on our website using the certificate's unique ID or QR code. For professional certification programs, a digital badge is also issued, allowing students to showcase their accomplishment on platforms such as LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter, and Badgr.

Certificates and digital badges include the completion date but do not display an expiration date. Compliance training is generally considered valid for up to three years, and many organizations schedule refresher training every one to three years to maintain alignment with evolving regulations, standards, and GxP expectations. Biopharma Institute does not assign a universal expiration date as it recognizes that the validity period or recertification interval for each individual worker should be determined by each individual organization's quality management team.
