CESPE Academy - Process Analytical Technologies
Description
To support both innovation and efficiency in pharmaceutical development, manufacturing, and quality assurance, the FDA proposed its process analytical technology or PAT framework (2004). The framework is founded on process understanding to facilitate innovation and risk-based regulatory decisions by industry and the Agency.
During this course, a basic introduction will be given on the implementation of process analytical tools (PAT) in the field of the pharmaceutical industry. An overview will be provided on the PAT-tools which are commonly used in the field including both spectroscopic and non-spectroscopic sensors. In addition, attendants will learn how, when and where these tools can provide a benefit to the pharmaceutical manufacturing process.
During a 2.5-day training, participants will learn to explore uni- and multivariate data and make predictive models using real spectroscopic data.
- Module 1: Basic course: Introduction to PAT (1-day)
- Module 2: Basic data-analysis and modeling (1.5-day)
Programme
Remarks
Additional information
- One week prior to the course, the registered participants will receive further information (directions, parking availabilities, course material).
- Upon completion of the training, a certificate of attendance will be made available on the platform.
- Additionally, the participant will receive an evaluation form to provide feedback on this training.
Annulation/Cancelation
Registration is possible up to one week before the day of the respective session.
Registrations can only be canceled by email, up to one week before the day of the respective course. After that, the full registration fee will still be due in case of cancellation.
A participant unable to attend can always be replaced by a colleague or can request a voucher for a similar training on a later date!
A minimum attendance of 5 participants is required to conduct the training. Otherwise the organization reserves the right to reschedule or cancel the training!
