The current GMP regulations and guidelines (ICH Q9, GAMP®5, EU GMP Guide Annex 11 “Computerised Systems“) focus more and more on the topic of computer validation, data integrity and cloud computing, but not providing practical guidance on how to implement them in real life. The Qualified Persons, Responsible Pharmacists, Quality Assurance and IT specialists have a lot of obligations related to computer validation, CS risk management, computer supplier approval, data integrity and audit trails. Therefore, it is the aim of this course to provide you with practice-oriented guidance in performing these tasks.

The aim of this two-day seminar is to provide a review of current EU regulation related to computer system validation, to give a proactive advice on to implement all requirements in the real life in an effective and GMP compliant way. Several interactive workshops will be provided throughout the two days which will enable delegates to understand and discuss the concepts in more detail, and to be able to apply what they have learned.
