The importance of establishing bioequivalence between a generic and its reference product is emphasized. The module specifies the content and format requirements for an ANDA submission and describes the FDA's review and approval process. An outline is given of the Generic Drug User Fee Amendments (GDUFA) and the law's effects on industry players. This course includes sections regarding bioequivalence, the Orange Book, the review and approval processes of ANDA, ANDA submission, patent certification, ANDA and generic drugs, and a regulatory overview. Certification Requirements: Students must view the entire course and successfully pass an online, multiple-choice final assessment within a 12-month period. A certificate of completion is immediately accessible in PDF format 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 period for employee compliance training would be determined by those responsible for managing quality assurance. Biopharma Institute's online training courses include immediate access after enrollment. Username, password, and instructions are emailed to the student directly following online enrollment into the program. Course takers may attempt the final assessment any number of times, as needed, to achieve a passing score.
