Temperature Controlled Storage & Transportation of Pharmaceuticals (Includes COLD CHAIN)

This pharmaceutical training course covers typical life-cycle approaches to the design, qualification and operation of temperature controlled storage and transportation systems, facilities and equipment. Systems, facilities and equipment have been placed into logical groups and attendees will be taken through their respective life-cycle (design, qualification/validation and operation). The course aims to cover the common and latest systems involved in the storage and transportation of drug products. It includes detailed information concerning how to map internal conditions across the spectrum of storage and transportation conditions used in the pharmaceutical industry. Also covered, are the wide range of instrumentation available for monitoring and mapping and how the placement of monitoring probes can be linked to/integrated into the mapping exercises undertaken as part of the validation life-cycle. The potential adjustment of upper and lower limits for storage conditions, to allow for instrument uncertainty, will be covered as part of the instrumentation presentation. The course will also focus on operational considerations for each system/facility/equipment group, covering subjects such as ongoing risk management, continuous improvement, data reporting/management and dealing with non-conformance, e.g. temperature excursions. There will be multiple interactive exercises to break up the presentation material and reinforce learning throughout the course.

Delegates will be provided with a 3-slide per page printed binder upon arrival on Day 1 and PDF versions of the slides will be sent out by email to each delegate after the course. Day-time meals and refreshments, together with a course dinner, held on the evening of Day 1 (Tuesday 11 Jun 2024), are included in the overall package.
