GMP: Introduction to Good Manufacturing Practices

Millions of people rely on the pharmaceutical manufacturing industry for their products. To ensure the integrity of the industry the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) created Good Manufacturing Practices (GMPs) which are found in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Title 21 Parts 210 & 211. This online training course takes viewers through the regulations.

The main course sections include General Provisions, Facilities and Equipment, Manufacturing and Labeling, and Laboratory Controls and Records. Sub-topics are contained within each section. For example, the section on General Provisions gives an overview of the responsibilities of the organization and personnel such as quality control, and notes how specific education and training requirements must be met. This course concludes with a section on GMP documentation which emphasizes the importance of documenting the manufacturing process from receipt of materials through distribution of the final product.
