Dublin, April 15, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Process Validation with Qualification (June 3rd - June 4th, 2026)" training has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
Ensure your manufacturing processes are validated from end to end using modern, science-based practices that meet today's global regulatory standards. In an era where regulators treat validation as a lifecycle activity rather than a one-time exercise, this course provides comprehensive training on how to design, qualify, and maintain processes in a state of control.
Over two days, participants will learn to integrate process validation and equipment/facility qualification into a unified strategy, aligned with FDA's 2011 Process Validation Guidance, EU GMP Annex 15, UK MHRA expectations, and WHO guidelines. The programme walks through each stage - from initial process design and scale-up (Stage 1), through Installation/Operational/Performance Qualification (IQ/OQ/PQ) and Process Performance Qualification (PPQ) (Stage 2), into ongoing Continued Process Verification (CPV) programs (Stage 3).
Emphasis is placed on a risk- and science-based approach: leveraging tools like Quality by Design (QbD), Design of Experiments (DOE), and Process Analytical Technology (PAT) to build quality into the process, and using data analytics to monitor performance. Participants will also learn how to handle re-validation when changes or transfers occur, and how to document validation activities to satisfy inspectors. This course ensures you can validate processes efficiently and right-first time, supporting both compliance and operational excellence.
