“It was a fabulous interactive course with great material and brilliant presenters that kept me interested all the way through. I feel confident with the knowledge I have gained to commence my RP role.”

RP Refresher Course

1 day
£649

Description
A one-day course presented by former MHRA inspectors face-to-face over Zoom. The agenda will address those areas the Responsible Person typically finds difficult to implement. A key focus will be maintaining the integrity of the supply chain. The course is not a re-cap of GDP but an opportunity to expand the skill-set.

Each course is similar in content but will run with a different emphasis, detailed in the description. The course will have entirely new content in 2022.
