About This Event

This course concentrates on pre-inspection readiness — what FDA evaluates long before the investigator presents FDA Form 482. Participants explore the FDA's risk-based inspection philosophy, including how internal Agency models prioritize sites for inspection and how seemingly minor data inconsistencies can elevate inspection scope. The session examines what FDA truly means by being "inspection ready," emphasizing the difference between having procedures in place and demonstrating real-world process control. Special attention is given to documentation practices, investigation quality, CAPA effectiveness, and management oversight. This is Module 1 of the Practitioner Course "FDA Inspection Readiness — Modular Course for Practitioners." Code: SEM37641
