The Center for Professional Innovation and Education (CfPIE) announces a new training course: How to implement risk management principles and activities within a quality management system
The course is scheduled for 16-17 October 2006 at the Desmond hotel and conference centre in Malvern, PA.
This two-day course is designed for quality managers, engineers, auditors, regulatory/quality compliance professionals, production managers and top management in the pharmaceutical, medical device and biotech industries interested in learning the value of risk management principals, and how to enhance existing systems by better employing resources as a result of utilising risk management techniques.
Preventative measures, such as risk management/analysis have permeated the life sciences, as firms take a more proactive approach to compliance.
As federal and international standards and regulations become more demanding and fines grow, the need for risk management programs is now greater than ever.
"A number of clients have asked CfPIE to provide a training course dealing with processes, methods, and tools for managing risks in the areas of discovery, research, manufacturing and regulatory affairs, stated Mark Mazzie, managing director of CfPIE.
The course will cover which risks are important to deal with and how the implementation of certain proven strategies can mitigate risks." CfPIE's risk management training solution is a comprehensive overview meant to give personnel the tools to identify risks and implement programs to mitigate pitfalls.
Topics covered include risk identification, corrective and preventative action plans (Capa), failure modes and effects analysis (FMEA), hazard analysis and critical control points (HACCP), ISO standards as they relate to risk management, quality systems regulation (QSR) and developing tailored risk management programmes.
