Basic Principles of Computerized Systems Compliance: Applying the GAMP® 5 Guide: A Risk-based Approach to Compliant GxP Computerized Systems Second Edition (T07)
Overview
This classroom or online course has been updated to include the new revised GAMP® 5 Second Edition.
This fundamental course introduces participants to regulatory requirements for computerized systems in the pharmaceutical, biotech, or medical device industry and explores tried, tested, and internationally recognized methods of meeting those requirements. GAMP guidance provides a pragmatic and effective framework for achieving computerized systems that are fit for intended use and meet current regulatory requirements, by building upon existing industry good practice in an efficient and effective manner.
What You Will Learn
- What are the international regulatory requirements for GxP computerized systems, including US 21 CFR Parts 211 and 11, and EU Annex 11?
- Overview of GAMP® 5 Second Edition Guide: A Risk-based Approach to Compliant GxP Computerized Systems
- GAMP® system lifecycle and specifications
- Scalable specification and verification based on risk
- Quality Risk Management for computerized systems
- Practical Risk Assessment methods
- Updated GAMP® Categories
- Role of users and suppliers - assessment and cooperation and leveraging supplier activities and documentation
