Dublin, Nov. 20, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Statistical Elements of Implementing ICH Quality Guidelines" training has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

This training is designed for professionals in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries who are engaged in quality assurance, control, validation, and risk management. The program focuses on addressing the implementation gaps in ICH quality guidelines using statistical reasoning and analysis.

Learning Objectives and Outcomes

  • Understanding ICH Guidelines: Trainees will gain a comprehensive understanding of the fourteen ICH Quality guidelines concerning statistical analysis.

  • Statistical Tools and Analysis: The course covers normal distribution, hypothesis testing, confidence intervals, and other statistical methods pertinent to the pharmaceutical industry.

  • Risk Management: Participants will learn how to develop and implement a quality risk management plan.

  • Practical Application: The seminar includes practical applications of statistics in various areas, such as stability testing, assay validation, and impurity testing.

Key Topics and Structure

  • Day 1: Focuses on reviewing ICH guidelines, understanding the basics of statistics, and developing a quality risk management plan.

  • Day 2: Delves into statistical tests and industry applications, including design of experiments and setting specifications.

Training Format

  • The seminar is spread over two days, with each day running from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM EDT, covering both theoretical aspects and practical applications of statistical methods in compliance with ICH guidelines.

Expert Speaker

  • Elaine Eisenbeisz: Owner of Omega Statistics and an experienced statistician, Elaine brings over three decades of expertise in statistical consulting to the seminar. She has a proven track record of collaborative and educational work across various sectors, including pharmaceutical research.

Training Goals and Regulatory Context
