Effectively Implementing CAPA (Corrective and Preventive Action):
A Risk Mitigating Quality System

Conducted by Gamal Amer, PhD
Senior Director of Technology and Compliance at BE&K, Inc

February 15, 2008

The prevalent method defined by the regulators (FDA, EU, …) and the industry for defining and mitigating risk is “Corrective Action Preventive Action,” otherwise referred to as CAPA. This seminar will help you define what is meant by risk. We will explore the factors associated with compliance risk. Then we will explore risk causing events and how to address them. A review of risk severity/level will be discussed. Upon completion of the risk part of the presentation we will define what a CAPA system would look like.

This seminar will focus on CAPA as it applies to risk mitigation. We will define what we mean by a CAPA system. We will further define the tools CAPA uses during implementation. Finally an overview of a CAPA system will be presented and a CAPA approach will be proposed. The approach will focus on defining the specific steps to be taken when implementing a CAPA system and review some of the possible pitfalls one may encounter when implementing a CAPA system. We will then review some of the benefits which may accrue by having a robust CAPA system in place.

In this unique web seminar format, lasting just one hour, you will be able to follow along with a PowerPoint presentation, ask questions, and interact with Dr. Amer.   An outline of this seminar and Dr. Amer’s qualifications can be found below.
