This course provides detailed understanding regarding the implementation of respective cGMP requirements in a state-of the- art quality control laboratory in a pharmaceutical company. The course does not just provide an overview about the most important cGMP regulations (OOS management, sample management, method validation, training, documentation, data management). In extensive workshops those regulations are further explained and extensively discussed within the group and solutions for the implementation are developed. Those results are further discussed with the trainers and with all attendees. This approach will not only provide the respective knowledge but also the ability to implement those solutions in the laboratory of the attendees.
