Webinar Description
What you will learn?
Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) form the foundation of product quality, ensuring that pharmaceuticals, food, and other regulated products are consistently produced and controlled according to established standards. This introductory webinar is designed for those new to GMP, providing a clear understanding of its principles, why it is important, and how it applies to everyday operations in manufacturing and quality control. Participants will gain insight into regulatory expectations, key GMP requirements, and best practices to maintain compliance.
By the end of this webinar, participants will be able to:
Explain the Importance of GMP – Understand why GMP is essential for maintaining product quality, safety, and consistency, and how it helps protect consumers and businesses from risks such as contamination, mix-ups, and defects.
Recognize Global GMP Regulations – Gain a basic understanding of regulatory agencies such as the FDA (U.S.), EMA (Europe), WHO, and PIC/S, and how their GMP guidelines ensure compliance in different regions.
Understand Key GMP Principles – Learn the core principles of GMP, including hygiene, facility cleanliness, process control, and personnel training, and how they contribute to the prevention of errors and defects in manufacturing.
Identify the Role of Documentation in GMP – Discover why good documentation practices (GDP) are crucial in GMP environments, including the importance of accurate record-keeping, batch records, and Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) in ensuring traceability and regulatory compliance.
Recognize Common GMP Violations and Challenges – Identify typical GMP non-compliances, such as poor documentation, inadequate training, and improper facility maintenance, and learn simple ways to avoid these common pitfalls.
Develop a GMP Mindset in Daily Work – Understand how every employee, from operators to supervisors, plays a role in GMP compliance and how adopting a culture of quality can help ensure regulatory success and product reliability.
