Effective Deviation Investigators Under GMP
- Duration: 120 Min
This 120 minute training course will help attendees understand the fundamental steps of a deviation investigation with focus on using facts and objective evidence to arrive at root cause and CAPA. Learn how to identify and avoid potential pitfalls during deviation investigations.
Why Should You Attend:
