2 Day Aseptic Processing and Validation Course: FDA Expectations and Industry Best Practices (ONLINE: Oct 20th - Oct 21st, 2025) - ResearchAndMarkets.com

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Aseptic Processing and Validation Course - FDA Expectations and Industry Best Practices (Oct 20th - Oct 21st, 2025)" training has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

This course provides an in-depth review of process design, contamination control strategy, risk assessments, and validation approaches aligned with FDA's Guidance for Industry, EU Annex 1, and ICH Q9/Q10 principles. Participants will gain tools for managing deviations, responding to FDA observations, and implementing effective CAPAs in aseptic environments.

Aseptic processing is one of the most critical and tightly regulated operations in pharmaceutical manufacturing. This 2-day advanced course explores FDA expectations and industry best practices for aseptic technique, facility design, personnel qualification, environmental monitoring, and media fill validation. With increasing scrutiny from FDA and global regulators, companies must demonstrate that their aseptic operations consistently produce sterile product under strict control.

Why You Should Attend:

Aseptic processing failures have led to some of the most severe FDA enforcement actions in recent years - including 483s, Warning Letters, and product recalls. This course is essential for anyone responsible for sterile product manufacturing, quality assurance, validation, or inspection readiness.

Attendees will learn how to mitigate risks through proper gowning, material transfer, environmental control, and process simulation. Emphasis will be placed on process validation strategies, cleanroom behavior, air handling systems, and microbial contamination control. Through practical examples and case studies, the training reinforces how to implement compliant, inspection-ready aseptic practices that ensure product quality and patient safety.

• Quality Assurance Departments
• Quality Control Departments
• Manufacturing (Sterile/Parenteral) Departments
• Operations Departments
• Engineering Departments
• Aseptic Manufacturing Supervisors
