(MasterControl: Salt Lake City) -- Some of the most stringent corrective and preventive action (CAPA) policies have caused hosts of compliance issues for life-science companies throughout 2010. Come learn from the MasterControl and Pathwise experts at a hands-on CAPA workshop—gain the knowledge and practical tools necessary to help shorten and better manage your CAPA investigations to improve product quality and ensure compliance.
MasterControl and Pathwise industry veterans have successfully trained hundreds of life-science companies to improve CAPA and quality processes. They have worked closely with the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to train investigators on the latest CAPA investigation and resolution techniques. As consultants, they have worked on a variety of high-impact problems, including product recalls where they have discovered root causes that have saved companies more than $20 million.

The course will also provide skills and tools to eliminate the following common CAPA problems:
• Countless open CAPAs with no resolution and too many people involved
• Internal investigators who can’t solve problems and find causes
The workshop is taught using a blended approach of classroom and real-life application. This “how-to” approach significantly increases knowledge retention and allows participants to apply the skills as they learn in a dynamic setting. You will learn about:
• Quality events—Examine the feeders to your CAPA system and learn to manage complaints, deviations, audit findings, and seven other quality events. Feeders will also be examined and key questions regarding CAPA forms will be discussed.
• Assess and prioritize each event based on risk and map form-to-form risk filters
This course is appropriate for individuals who are regularly called upon to resolve problems, or whose input would aid in preventing problems. Examples of attendees include investigators, laboratory technicians, quality assurance personnel, managers, manufacturing supervisors, and engineers.
