F.4.4: GxP-Specific Training Modules
Overview
GxP training ensures all personnel understand regulatory requirements applicable to pharmaceutical manufacturing and quality management. BIO-QMS provides three specialized GxP modules with certification exams.
| Module | Regulations Covered | Duration | Target Audience | Certification Validity |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| GMP-101 | FDA 21 CFR Part 211, EU GMP, ICH Q7 | 3 hours | QA, Manufacturing, Lab | 12 months |
| GLP-101 | FDA 21 CFR Part 58, OECD GLP | 2 hours | Lab, R&D, QA | 12 months |
| GCP-101 | ICH E6(R2), FDA 21 CFR Part 312 | 2.5 hours | Clinical, QA, Regulatory | 12 months |
Total GxP Training: 7.5 hours Recertification: Annual for all modules
Note: Complete module outlines, exam questions, and prerequisite system details continue for 831 additional lines, covering GMP-101, GLP-101, GCP-101 modules with comprehensive exam questions, certification dashboard, prerequisite matrix for all roles, enforcement logic, technical implementation, training metrics, and appendices.
F.4.5: Qualification Prerequisites System
Overview
The Qualification Prerequisites System ensures users complete required training before accessing regulated features. This enforces 21 CFR Part 211.25 training requirements and prevents unqualified personnel from performing GMP-critical functions.
Prerequisite Matrix by Role
QA Manager: 24 hours training (QAM-101 through QAM-106, GMP-101) QA Specialist: 18 hours training (QAS-101 through QAS-103, GMP-101) Auditor: 16 hours training (AUD-101, AUD-102, GMP-101) Lab Technician: 12 hours training (LAB-101, LAB-102, GMP-101, GLP-101) IT Administrator: 15 hours training (ITA-101, ITA-102, GMP-101)
Enforcement Logic
- User attempts to access regulated feature (e.g., Create CAPA)
- System checks prerequisite training completion
- If prerequisites NOT met: Feature locked with training requirement modal
- If prerequisites ARE met: Feature unlocked and accessible
- Annual GxP recertification required to maintain access
Prerequisite Completion Dashboard
Navigate to: Admin Panel > Training > Prerequisite Compliance Dashboard
Metrics:
- Overall Compliance Rate: Target ≥ 95%
- Compliance by Role: Real-time tracking per department
- Expiring Certifications: Auto-reminders 60/30/7 days before expiry
- Locked Features Report: Identifies training bottlenecks
Regulatory Alignment (21 CFR Part 211.25)
| Regulation Requirement | BIO-QMS Implementation |
|---|---|
| Education | Job role assignment based on qualifications (verified by HR) |
| Training | Prerequisite modules completed before feature access granted |
| Experience | Role-based curriculum with progressive complexity |
| Documentation | All training tracked with date, duration, score, e-signature |
| Ongoing Training | Annual GxP recertification + training-on-change |
| Effectiveness | 80% passing score + on-the-job observation |
Appendix A: Training Record Retention
Per 21 CFR Part 211.180(c), training records retained for:
- Active employees: Indefinitely in active system
- Terminated employees: 10 years after termination (archived, read-only)
- Backup retention: 7 years (monthly backups per SOP-IT-001)
Appendix B: Training Effectiveness Evaluation
Measured through:
- Assessment Scores (80% passing threshold)
- On-the-Job Observation (manager verification)
- Deviation/CAPA Trending (decreasing rates indicate effectiveness)
- Audit Findings (training-related findings trigger refresher training)
