    FDA Reduces GMP Inspections by 40 Percent, Focuses on Imports - PharmaManufacturing

    FDA Reduces GMP Inspections by 40 Percent, Focuses on Imports - PharmaManufacturing:

    "The FDA plans to conduct 591 domestic good manufacturing practice (GMP) inspections in fiscal 2014 and 2015, down from the 967 performed last year. The agency in turn hopes to perform 30 percent more foreign GMP inspections, conducting 843 inspections each year, up from last year’s 604. Companies will be chosen for inspection based on the agency’s risk-based inspection model that grants leeway to high-quality companies. The FDA takes into account risk factors including Class I recalls and adverse events, as well as compliance history, in applying the risk-based inspections model to its decision making."

    Trainers must be skilled!
    • They must be expert course designers and facilitators
    • They must pay attention to the experiential learning process
    • They must keep students involved, engaged, and energized
    It’s a given that GMP & QSR trainers must have mastery over the regulations that they are teaching. Mastering applicable laws, regulations, directives, standards, guidance, and compendia for manufacturing biologics, drugs, dietary supplements, and medical devices is essential for raising your company’s employees and management team compliance competency.

    GMP & QSR trainers must also be able to help others expand their knowledge of relevant regulatory requirements, and to help others apply that knowledge in the workplace.

    What does that mean?
    It means that trainers must have the skills needed to teach others. We often find that trainers, program designers, training supervisors, training managers, and others who conduct GMP or QSR training in the pharmaceutical, biotech, medical device or dietary supplement industries need help in developing their training skills.
    Expert GMP & QSR trainers:
    1. Focus on experiential learning processes
    2. Teach in a facilitation and learning style that’s appropriate to particular regulatory topics
    3. Design and facilitate learning activities
    4. Facilitate meaningful discussions, and create safe environments through the debrief process
    5. Model different teaching strategies
    6. Tell compelling case stories
    7. Keep students involved, engaged, and energized

    Act now to avoid these common deficiencies:
    • Failure to ensure that each person has the education, training and experience to perform their assigned functions
    • Failure to document that all personnel are trained to adequately perform their assigned responsibilities
    Food For Thought On GMP Trainers:
    • cGMP trainers should be trained and qualified instructors who have the required background and experience in the subject matter. 
    • Be aware that when “repeated” errors are noted in documents, inspectors will look at training records to see if the trainers have been trained. 
    • One documentation approach is to keep resumes of all trainers on file permanently, so that they are available for FDA inspection.
