This web training session is designed to help attendees understand the fundamental change control steps and processes. The expert trainer will focus on change proposals, assessments, execution and final implementation of a change control quality system. The importance of proper planning, critical thinking skills, and co-ordination of all change activities will also be discussed.
WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND?
Change Control is a critical element of the Quality Management System. Changes to processes, equipment, facilities, materials/components, suppliers, test methods, specifications, etc; must be properly managed to prevent unintended consequences, and to comply with regulatory requirements. Improper change control can result in significant compliance and product quality problems.
During this course, the speaker will explain the regulatory basis for change controls, the steps in designing a change control system, and the types of documents or processes that are subject to change control. After completion of this course, you will be able to implement immediate steps in executing a change control form.
