Controlled
environments required for the manufacture of pharmaceutical products are
cleanrooms and they are assigned a class through meeting a set standard for
airborne particles. Once a grade is assigned, a series of other physical and
microbial parameters need be met: HEPA filtration, control of the air through
air changes and pressure differentials; staff wearing appropriate garments;
adequate cleaning and disinfection. While such measures can be introduced
through the Quality by Design approach and good procedures, to achieve ongoing
control requires effective training.
In
relation to these important issues, Tim Sandle has written an new article. The
introduction reads:
“Traditional
training has served the industry well, but it does not always deliver expected
outcomes. Moreover, classroom-style training can be expensive and where it is
not sufficiently engaging; the message does not always sink in. For these
reasons, many pharmaceutical companies are turning to e-learning.”
