FDA Data Integrity for Computerized Systems Combat the Misconceptions of 21 CFR 11 and Annex 11

The Problem:

We have all heard of Data Integrity but do you really understand what it is? Do you understand how 21 CFR 11 and Annex 11 fit into this picture? Specifically, can you answer questions on the following:

• Evolution of 21 CFR Part 11 and Annex 11 and Why they are Back in the News
• Overview and Key Requirements of Part 11 & Annex 11
• How to use a Risk Based Assessment to reduce work while still achieving Data Integrity and Compliance?
• How FDA & other Regulatory Authorities Inspect Computerized Systems for Data Integrity?

I often refer to 21 CFR 11 and Annex 11 as Good Software Engineering with the Documentation on Steroids! However, unless one knows how to implement Data Integrity, it is often very hard to apply requirements for DATA INTEGRITY to computerized system, and very hard to determine what needs to be done, to meet domestic and / or international regulations or business continuity requirements. In addition, the agencies have stepped up data integrity inspections and the number of citations on the subject are skyrocketing!

This course is appropriate for beginner and experienced person alike. The topics will build on each other and will give you the latest trends in our heavily regulated industry and how to make it easy for yourself while still achieving data integrity.

This is a very hands-on class and the attendees will be given take away templates that will enable them to build a complete package to meet Data Integrity Requirements for Computerized Systems
