The FDA says approximately 44% of device recalls are due to faulty design. Recalls are expensive, embarrassing and often lead to more serious financial consequences — not only from the FDA but also from courts and unhappy shareholders.
To survive in today's tough economy and ultra-competitive medical device market, manufacturers need a quality system that works from the get-go, from the start of product design, continuing through component selection, manufacturing, use and disposal.
Register now for Medical Device Quality & Compliance Institute 2014: Quality Systems and Design Control Training — two courses presented by EduQuest in cooperation with FDAnews that are offered separately or as an integrated three-and-a-half-day learning package — and learn how to develop a by-the-book quality management program. Leave the guessing to the competition.
Discover how to overcome one of the biggest obstacles device manufacturers face, how the FDA expects manufacturers to develop and implement design controls, then transfer product design to manufacturing operations.
With three-and-a-half days of intensive training attendees will walk away with the compliance guidance and insight needed to meet FDA standards with confidence.
Learn straight from the source, former FDA inspectors, rulemakers and trainers from the global consulting team of EduQuest, headquartered near Washington, DC. The instructors include one of the co-authors and trainers of the FDA's Quality System Inspection Technique (QSIT) and the founding editor and co-author of the FDA's "bible" for inspectors, the Investigations Operations Manual (IOM).
Through plain-English instruction, detailed course materials and interactive exercises that reinforce the lessons (not to mention make the classroom more fun and interesting), attendees will learn to cost-effectively comply with the FDA's QSR rules and related international standards.
Specifically targeted to device manufacturers and suppliers, the institute gives a thorough understanding of the massive 21 CFR 820 Quality Systems Regulation requirements. Know what it takes to stay in compliance and avoid the risk of a product not getting to market or being removed from the market once it's there.
