Presentation of the project results
Changes are possible. The course content is updated regularly.
After this course, you will be familiar with the requirements of a GMP system, the applicable regulations and the central processes of pharmaceutical quality management. You will understand the basics of SOP systems, CAPA, change management, audit processes, documentation, quality control, industrial hygiene and cleanroom requirements and be able to classify relevant technical terms with confidence.
You will also master the legal, ethical and administrative aspects of GCP as well as the specialist knowledge of clinical trials from planning to statistical evaluation.
The course is aimed at science students, engineering graduates, production managers, quality officers and all employees in pharmaceutical production, technology, quality control and quality assurance. It is also aimed at all persons who are responsible for compliance with "Good Manufacturing Practice" and want to find out about the core GMP topics.
Professional knowledge and consistent adherence to prescribed standards are required to ensure high quality in clinical trials. With these newly acquired skills, you will be in high demand in the pharmaceutical industry or at a contract research organization.
Additional GMP knowledge is essential in almost all areas of the production of pharmaceuticals and active ingredients, as well as cosmetics, food and animal feed. Your newly acquired knowledge will open up numerous new opportunities for you in these sectors.
Didactic concept
Your lecturers are highly qualified both professionally and didactically and will teach you from the first to the last day (no self-study system).
You will learn in effective small groups. The courses usually consist of 6 to 25 participants. The general lessons are supplemented by numerous practical exercises in all course modules. The practice phase is an important part of the course, as it is during this time that you process what you have just learned and gain confidence and routine in its application. The final section of the course involves a project, a case study or a final exam.
Virtual classroom alfaview®
Lessons take place using modern alfaview® video technology - either from the comfort of your own home or at our premises at Bildungszentrum. The entire course can see each other face-to-face via alfaview®, communicate with each other in lip-sync voice quality and work on joint projects. Of course, you can also see and talk to your connected trainers live at any time and you will be taught by your lecturers in real time for the entire duration of the course. The lessons are not e-learning, but real live face-to-face lessons via video technology.
The courses at alfatraining are funded by Agentur für Arbeit and are certified in accordance with the AZAV approval regulation. When submitting a Bildungsgutscheinor Aktivierungs- und Vermittlungsgutschein, the entire course costs are usually covered by your funding body.
Funding is also possible via Europäischen Sozialfonds (ESF), Deutsche Rentenversicherung (DRV) or regional funding programs. As a regular soldier, you have the option of attending further training courses via Berufsförderungsdienst (BFD). Companies can also have their employees qualified via funding from Agentur für Arbeit (Qualifizierungschancengesetz).
