PDA 593.1 Fundamentals of Automated Visual Inspection
Registration Options
Individual Registration
Group Registration
This live eLearning training course will provide a basic understanding of the automated visual inspection (AVI) process and technology. Participants will learn how the capability of AVI process is dependent on the equipment, development and validation processes, as well as discuss the advantages and disadvantages of AVI technology. During this training course, participants will evaluate validation strategies to determine which approach to use under given circumstances. A case study will also be discussed.
This training course is an excellent opportunity to discuss questions that you have and to interact with others who are facing and overcoming the same inspection issues.
- Apply the regulatory requirements for visual inspection to the automated environment
- Apply the knowledge of limitations of AVI inspection
- Evaluate validation strategies and be able to identify the most appropriate approach for defined circumstances
- Apply the knowledge of the functioning of AVI equipment to assess capability of performance
- Evaluate data from inspection program to identify potential program improvements and create solutions
