Description: On completion of this Equipment Qualification for Professionals program, students will be able to understand the seven-step approach to supplier qualification, explain how to conduct audits as part of supplier qualification, explain how to use interviews and questionnaires during supplier qualification, explain considerations for maintaining qualification during the qualification period and give an overview of the supplier disqualification and re-qualification process. This program describes how to assess the risks to product quality in the event of a functional failure of equipment used in a pharmaceutical cGMP environment. The risk-based qualification assessment describes the qualification steps (Risk Assessment, Design, Installation, Operational and Performance Qualification etc.) required to qualify the equipment in order mitigate that risk. Quality Risk Management (QRM) principles require the evaluation of risk to patient safety and product quality based on scientific knowledge, data, and experience. Regulators expect that QRM is inherently built into the backbone of the pharmaceutical quality system (PQS), formerly called quality management system (QMS), by using a lifecycle approach to implement both formal and informal risk tools that support the elements defined in ICH Q9 for risk assessment, risk control, risk review, communication of identified risks, and acceptance of residual risks. Upon completion of this program students will understand the overall concept of Quality Risk Management (QRM), where does risk come from, the potential areas for Quality Risk Management application, the regulatory requirements, and the various risk management tools. Commissioning, Qualification and Validation (CQV) activities for life science manufacturing facilities, systems, utilities, and equipment, are essential for ensuring compliance to regulations and confirming that the drugs manufactured within them are fit for their intended use. International regulatory agencies have indicated in their respective guidelines and regulations that organizations must build quality into their processes and products. The purpose of this program is also to explore the guidelines for CQV Activities, why they are important and how they are used to evaluate and mitigate direct or indirect risk to facilities and systems. This program goes on to introduce the key concepts around identifying risk, and risk analysis including risk evaluation, mitigation, and communication.

Additional Information:Certification Requirements: Students must view the entire program and successfully pass an online, multiple-choice final assessment for each course within a 12-month period. Certificate of completion is accessible in PDF format immediately after satisfying the requirements. Biopharma Institute certificates and digital badges include the date of completion, but do not have an expiration date. However, compliance training is typically considered valid for a period of 3 years. Many organizations suggest that compliance training should be refreshed at least every three years to stay up to date with regulations, standards, guidelines, and to reinforce the importance of maintaining compliance. The validity or recertification period for employee compliance training would be determined by those responsible for managing quality within the company. Biopharma Institute's online training courses include immediate access after enrollment. Username, password, and instructions are emailed to the student following enrollment into any program or course. Students may attempt the final assessments any number of times, as needed, to achieve a passing score. Once all training requirements have been satisfied a professional certification has been achieved and can be verified immediately from our website using a unique ID code located on the certificate. The professional certificate of completion is also instantaneously launched and made available to the student in a PDF format. Additionally, once the student has completed the professional certification program, a digital badge is issued.
