Frequently asked questions

Frequently asked questions and answers about the GDP for the Pharmaceutical Sector training.

We hold GMP. Do we also need GDP training?

GMP (good manufacturing practice) focuses on the manufacturing site and its processes. Once a medicine leaves the factory, its transport, storage and climate control on the way to pharmaceutical warehouses, hospitals and pharmacies fall under GDP. GDP is essential for a secure distribution channel.

Can you run the training in-house?

Absolutely. We can tailor the training to your warehouse areas, vehicle fleet, cold room infrastructure and specific product group (biologics, vaccines, medicines needing special climate control and so on), and run it at your company or online.

What is the role of the Responsible Person (RP) under GDP?

The Responsible Person is the authorized professional with primary responsibility for setting up and maintaining the GDP system, following up temperature deviations and handling audits. Our training also gives full guidance to RPs and aspiring RPs.
