Outline:Course Overview- An outline of the course scope and objectives, and notes on terminology. 21 CFR Part 11 and its scope- We define regulation 21 CFR Part 11, explain its purpose, and set out criteria for identifying the environments, computer systems, electronic records, and electronic signatures to which it applies. We describe how underlying legal requirements are specified by predicate rules. We point out that it is not the type of computer system that determines whether Part 11 applies, but the use to which the system is put. Finally, we introduce the regulation's distinction between closed and open systems. Procedures and controls- We describe the procedures and controls that need to be established and followed to comply with Part 11. We identify those for which the FDA exercises enforcement discretion. We give examples of open systems and outline additional procedures and controls required for them. Electronic signatures- We set out Part 11's requirements for electronic signatures. We specify the information to be provided and we outline constraints on the way signatures are linked to records. We emphasize the importance of uniqueness of signatures and verification of the identity of signatories. We mention the need for one-off certification with the FDA. We outline components of non-biometric and biometric signatures. Finally, we set out procedures and controls required for user names and passwords. FDA enforcement discretion- We describe the FDA's narrow interpretation of Part 11, and its effect on the need to comply with some of the regulation's provisions. We discuss the latest relevant FDA guidance for industry and the effect of the agency's interpretation on its enforcement of compliance with requirements for validation, audit trails, record retention, and record copying. We also specify the exemption for legacy computer systems. Assessment- Multiple-choice mastery assessment. | Objectives:Who will benefit from this module?

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.
