Corso interessante per chi come me vuole avvicinarsi all'ambito della qualità e della convalida di processo. Forse in alcuni punti è stato un po' troppo ripetitivo.
By Gloria Jimenez on 11/7/2025
Very easy to understand and breaks down every topic.
By Ravi samsani on 6/14/2025
Certainly i got a good knowledge about Validation and understood key steps involved in process validation.
By David Meyer on 5/5/2025
Yes - I just learned about the terms used in the manufacturing of the products. Good material. Stuck with me. Thanks for clarifying differences between FDA and ICH. That helps.

Good to learn about validations
By Francis Hubler on 1/7/2025
Pro: clear presentation of the general principles of process validation Cons: too much reading of written text on slides, a lot of repetition, few concrete exemples

it is very informative session. basic concept is explained very well.
By Munmun Chakraborty on 5/26/2024
The content is good but it is very monotonous. The instructor only reads the slides which at times becomes very boring. Also the pronunciation of the instructor in not appealing for Indian students.
By Alona on 5/21/2024
The content is informative and useful but the presentation could be better. The pace is not consistent and certain terms are mispronounced which makes it hard to understand the material.
