Dublin, Jan. 31, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Medical Device Quality Systems, CAPA and European Medical Device Regulations" training has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
Medical Device Companies must meet the regulatory requirements to "establish and maintain" a quality management system (QMS).
This 2-day seminar will cover the essentials of compliance for medical device companies. An efficient and effective quality system can be a competitive advantage for companies by leading to improved quality and compliance as well as optimizing the cost of quality.
This virtual seminar will get you started in setting up just such a Quality System. We'll discuss the "case for quality" and how you can use compliance, not as an end itself, but as a means to improved quality and reduced cost of non-compliance. This course will cover the essential for creating a QMS that is both effective and efficient.
This seminar will help you understand regulatory requirements and how to translate them into a quality system that is both effective and efficient. You'll learn how to plan, structure, and implement a quality system specific for your business needs. We'll explore the capabilities that every medical device company needs to ensure quality products and a compliant quality system.
We'll discuss how to create a quality strategy and plans. Will discuss methods to identify, prioritize, and analyze risks. Then will move on to continuous improvement, six sigma, and Corrective and Preventive Action to address issues within your Quality System. You'll learn how to effectively communicate and escalate risk as well as monitor performance and progress.
This seminar can help you get your quality system off to a good start and avoid common problems including MDRs, recalls, 483s, and warning letters!
The expectations for quality and compliance continue to increase. We will discuss changing regulations and expectations and what you can do to prepare for them. This seminar will allow you to interact personally with an industry expert with over 30 years of experience in medical devices.
