QP Hot Topic Webtorial

Interactive Hot Topic WebTorials: Master real-world problem solving with risk assessment techniques

These 90-minute virtual highly interactive sessions give participants the chance to work through real-world scenarios designed to test knowledge, problem solve and find resolutions using risk assessment techniques. Running once a month, each session is specifically designed to help participants apply new ways of thinking in their day-to-day roles.


Presented with a ‘progressive scenario’, and facilitated by the Tutor, attendees will be expected to solve problems in real time utilising their pre-existing knowledge and experience. By sharing best practice across a wide range of different backgrounds, dosage forms and technologies you will develop your critical thinking and decision-making skills as a Qualified Person.

Who Should Attend

These hot topic sessions are designed for both trainee and experienced QPs looking to develop their network and maintain an up-to-date knowledge of the industry. Other regulatory and quality professionals, as well as manufacturing or supply chain professionals who are impacted by the topics under discussion will benefit from attending.

 

Sessions are run in an open discussion format, to allow people to ask specific questions on the topic and converse with their peers on any challenges faced in their daily activities. Learners will have the opportunity to review best practices and ensure that the foundation of legal requirements is in place for each topic covered.

First Review


Topic applied to real life scenarios

Useful to both trainee QP's and QP's alike, these webtorials select a different topic each time and explore this with the support of an industry expert. The webtorials are of sufficient length to engage and discuss but not too long as to interfere with the busy lives of QPs. Rebecca's knowledge was very good and she was able to provoke further discussion points around the topic with ease. She also was very good at bringing the topic to real life scenarios.

The scenarios made me think!

It was really good having the presentation followed by scenarios - it kept me interested and the scenarios made me think! A very knowledgeable tutor and I liked the examples she talked about from her experiences and background. The small amount of attendees meant we could all get involved.

Allow me to keep abreast of potential changes to reg

The hot topic webinars never fail to provide me with additional information that initiates conversations amongst my team. The webinars allow me to keep abreast of potential changes to reg and form a key part of the horizon scanning activities I undertake.

A detailed module

The additional benefits these webinars have provided, have allowed me to take key learning away to implement on site that typically were not covered in as much detail in the modules I have completed.
