GLP Online | Good Laboratory Practice Course

Good Laboratory Practice - GLP Training

This GLP training course provides an essential grounding in the way all types of non-clinical health and environmental safety studies should be planned, performed, monitored, recorded, archived and reported. The author, Roger Chapman, is an internationally recognised expert in the interpretation and application of OECD Good Laboratory Practice to the full spectrum of regulatory studies, both in the laboratory and in the field. He has also led or participated in over 70 regulatory inspections from the MHRA, FDA and EPA, and has developed and maintained GxP quality systems and audit programmes for over 30 years.

Course Details

Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) applies to the non-clinical safety testing of test items contained in pharmaceutical products, pesticide products, cosmetic products, veterinary drugs as well as food additives, feed additives, and industrial chemicals. The test items are often synthetic chemicals, but may be of natural or biological origin and, in some circumstances, may be living organisms.

This course is recommended for Principle Investigators, Study Directors, Managers and Quality Assurance staff plus all laboratory staff in testing facilities. It covers the internationally recognised OECD GLP principles that have been passed into law by the European Union and many other countries.

CPD Points - Gain Continuing Professional Development (CPD) Points, accredited by The Faculty of Pharmaceutical Medicine of the Royal College of Physicians of the United Kingdom. These can be used to count towards the distance learning element of any scheme that comes under the umbrella of The Academy of Medical Royal Colleges or any other scheme for which there is mutual recognition.
