Training

Bring your team up to speed

Well trained regulatory affairs staff are a major asset to your company. But knowing the regulations is not enough. You need to know how to deal with the people who administer them.

Our professional Staff Training courses are based on our senior consultants’ years of experience in training TGA staff and staff from other regulatory agencies across the Asia Pacific region.  We can give your staff the skills and knowledge required to deal confidently and competently with the TGA and Medsafe, the agencies regulating your business.

Our approach is to train on the job wherever possible, using real applications your staff are dealing with in their daily work. We are also happy to follow up with on-the-job mentoring for as long as required.

We don’t do one-size-fits-all courses on TGA/Medsafe Staff Training. We do offer general or advanced level training for small groups or individuals – and we can tailor it to suit your specific needs.

Please note that we are not an accredited training organisation.
