What exactly does Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) entail? And is it really as important as the industry claims? Anyone working in the pharmaceutical industry will inevitably be faced with GMP guidelines. During this course, you will be taught about these guidelines and experience for yourself what it is like to work accordingly.
We introduce you to the world of GMP. Interactive theory will be alternated with workshops and we will finish te training with a practical exercise. You will experience for yourself what it is like to work in a clean environment by taking you into our cleanrooms.
As part of this you will participate in GMP gowning procedures. Are these gowning procedures really necessary? Yes, they are! Human beings pose the greatest risk in the pharmaceutical world. The challenge with GMP is to limit this risk. To achieve this, expertise, behavior and performance play a crucial role. That's why these aspects are a recurring theme throughout the program.
This course will give you a comprehensive understanding of GMP in its theoretical and practical aspects.

"The course is very interactive and enjoyable; the trainers have a great way to educate, precise and funny at the same time; professional and friendly environment; very interesting to learn about the basics of GMP, even if you don't use it daily; the trainers are fantastic, I really learned a lot and their way of teaching enabled me to think about other, similar situations".
