EPiC Auditors Autumn Compliance Seminar: Thursday 10th November 2022

Here’s what our seminar speakers have to say about the event;

“A condition of holding an MIA and WDA(H) is that the guidelines on GMP and GDP are complied with. Sustaining the required level of compliance is a must to ensure medicinal products of the right quality are manufactured and distributed and avoid regulatory action. My presentation on Future-proofing compliance will explore what licence holders can and should do to continually improve and not only fulfil but exceed this requirement.” 

Richard Andrews, EPiC Auditors Managing Director & Senior Consultant   

With the deadline for the implementation of Annex1 fast approaching, now is a great time to consider the implications for your sterile processes.  At the EPiC Autumn Compliance Seminar, I will roadmap those areas of the new Annex 1 that may result in many future sterility assurance deficiencies – a roadmap of the hotspots. This session will complement the session from Rick Parker of the MHRA, who will provide the latest MHRA thinking on Annex 1. A great opportunity to get ahead of the Annex 1 changes!

Darren Jones, EPiC Auditors Director & Senior Consultant

What was it?

This online seminar was a full day delivered remotely comprising a variety of ex MHRA Inspector speakers with invited guest speaker Richard Parker, Senior GMDP Inspector at the MHRA who will be delivering an MHRA update on Annex 1 with a regulators view of the changes. 

Altogether was a thought-provoking and informative day which aimed to:

• Share recent changes and updates to the GMP and GDP Guidelines and Regulations with particular focus on Annex 1.
• Highlight changes to inspection practices and MHRA oversight.
• Discuss tools and practices to maintain compliance.
• Present current and future Annex 1 deficiencies, along with the pitfalls to avoid.
• Provide insight into the changes arising from the implementation of the Clinical Trials Regulations and points to consider around the IMP / GCP Interface.
• Explore the challenges and considerations when moving from an R & D to a GMP Environment.

This event provided updates and information on recent changes to guidelines and regulations as well insights into current deficiency trends and inspection practices.

The Autumn Compliance Seminar had been given ‘In Principle’ CPD Certification

EPiC Auditors have received notification from the CPD Certification Service that the further learning value and structure of our Autumn Compliance Seminar on 10^th November 2022 conforms to CPD guidelines and we have been given ‘in principle’ certification for our forthcoming event.

Continuing professional development (CPD) is an important part of any business. It’s the intentional process of learning and improving your skills in order to keep up with changing technology, meet new industry standards, and prepare for future job roles or promotions.

CPD requirements are present in most professions and is particularly important in the pharmaceutical industry. Most companies and organisations now prioritise CPD because they ensure a constantly developing workforce. Depending on what kind of work you do and where your career is going, continuing professional development can range from participating in online course every few months or attending an industry conference every year.

It can be difficult to commit time to CPD and attend conferences when you are already busy with other tasks at work, so EPiC Auditors will bring a high quality, informative and thought provoking  seminar to you on Thursday 10^th November.

Our full day virtual conference will be delivered live, remotely online between 9.00 am and 5.00 pm (GMT) with interactive sessions and an opportunity to ask our expert panel those burning compliance questions!

We had some fantastic feedback from the attendees of our GMP Symposium 2022 in February 2022:

“Excellent symposium. Exceptionally knowledgeable presenters allowing an insight into the perspective of regulatory inspectors, this is invaluable information for those of us in industry. The platform was very impressive, and is easily the best example of an virtual meeting solution for large events I have encountered. Good breadth of topics covered across the day also, making it an excellent investment of time.”

“Really enjoyed today, very informative and the schedule was well put together covering lots of key points.”

“Well worth attending – a very valuable day”

“Excellent symposium! Expertly planned and delivered, I was not bored at all for the whole day”

“Really informative symposium with interesting contents and knowledgeable speakers. Highly satisfying.”

An application has been made to accredit the event and award CPD points. Certificates will be sent to the email address you have registered with approximately 2-3 weeks after the event.
