Validation & Compliance Institute Selects the SyberWorks Hosted Learning Management System to Provide FDA Compliance Training
Waltham, MA, January 15, 2010 --(PR.com)-- SyberWorks Inc., a leader in the Learning Management Systems (LMS) industry, announced today that they signed an agreement with the Validation & Compliance Institute, LLC to provide FDA compliance training through the SyberWorks Hosted Learning Management System.
Dr. Norm Howe, Senior Partner for Validation & Compliance Institute (VCI) says, “The Validation & Compliance Institute provides a full range of validation and compliance services for the FDA regulated industries. Our area of expertise includes good manufacturing practices (cGMP) for pharmaceuticals, medical devices, active pharmaceutical ingredients, food and beverage, biopharmaceuticals, sterile fill, excipients, computer software validation and more.”
Howe states, “We are providing traditional classroom-type training to our clients, so offering this information via e-learning is a logical step in the development of our business. Since we are a consulting organization, a hosted learning management system with built-in e-commerce functionality made the most sense. We chose the SyberWorks Hosted LMS because it meets all of our needs with room to grow at a reasonable price. We can provide world class regulatory training and learning management to even the smallest companies.”
Howe continues, “The courses we currently offer online are Corrective and Preventive Action - Root Cause Analysis; Calibration for FDA Regulated Industries; Introduction to Medical Device Approval Pathways; cGMPs for Drugs and Finished Pharmaceuticals; Introduction to cGMPS; and cGMPs for Pharmaceutical Operations Personnel. The Validation & Compliance Institute also has 18 new courses in development; some of the topics to be offered are: Good Laboratory Practices; Good Documentation Practices; Microbial Control; Out of Specification Results; Validation: An Introduction to IQ, OQ; and PQ; Writing Compliant, Practical Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and more.”
