What Our Past Participants Say
Professionals from leading Irish and international companies have completed this course and apply the knowledge in their daily work.
“The GDP Champion training delivered by the IEA provided a comprehensive overview of a complex subject and was extremely well-delivered in an informal setting. The course was very interactive and it was beneficial to listen to the contributions made by my fellow attendees who came from a range of backgrounds in the industry. Becoming a GDP Champion will be an invaluable asset to Hannon Transport and I would highly recommend this course to anyone interested in expanding their knowledge of GDP and its intricacies.”
Glenn Conlon
“I signed up for the course to gain an understanding of GDP systems and the importance of GDP guidelines. The delivery of the GDP Champion course was done completely online but, although I would have preferred a face-to-face scenario, the course delivered what I was hoping for and more! I now feel confident enough to apply this knowledge in my workplace and would have no hesitation in recommending this course to anyone working for a company that deals with pharma goods.”
Dorina Alexandrianu – QHSE Manager
“I really enjoyed the course and thought the make up of the people attending, with some being from pharma companies, some from global logistics providers as well as haulage companies, really helped in bringing different perspectives and viewpoints together over the 3 days. The trainer was also really knowledgeable and delivered a great course, I was particularly impressed by how he got everyone involved and encouraged input from the whole group in an online setting.”
Brian Beattie – transport Operations Director
“The participants involved came from many fields that would be involved in this business from the manufacturers through to the distributors and transport sector which was extremely helpful. This 3 day course covered a wide and varied structure on the Good Distribution Practice of Medicinal Products for Human use and was carried out in a very informal environment making it more relaxed for everyone involved, using both written work and group “brain-storming” sessions. The trainer was very experienced in all fields covered and was therefore able to give us many scenarios which may occur in the process of handling medicinal products, with each topic thoroughly covered. This course was carried out very professionally and I would have no hesitation in recommending to anyone.”
