Description

Operational Excellence: Nonconformities and CAPA

This module is aimed at personnel in regulated manufacturing facilities, who are typically involved in CAPA-related activities, e.g. personnel in production, quality, engineering, facilities, maintenance, etc.

The module uses a scenario-rich design to introduce the user to the key concepts and terminologies of CAPA. Using various industry-based scenarios, the user will be taken through the key steps of a CAPA process from identifying a problem to verifying the effectiveness of the solutions implemented to resolve it. In doing so, users will be better equipped to distinguish between key concepts such as corrections, corrective actions, and preventive actions. They will also work through the concept of risk, categorization of nonconformities as minor, major, or critical, and subsequent decision-making regarding CAPA implementation. The regulatory expectations surrounding nonconformities and CAPA will also be stressed.

Key benefits:

  • Gain enhanced understanding of the different terminologies associated with CAPA.
