Inspection readiness is not a project you start when the FDA sends a notification letter. It is a continuous state -- the natural consequence of doing everything in Courses 2 through 5 well. This course teaches you to build, maintain, and lead a site-wide inspection readiness program. It covers mock inspections, gap analyses, CAPA management, and the specific preparation required when a regulatory authority or sponsor audit actually occurs. But it frames all of this within a quality management system that extends beyond inspections: the ongoing program that ensures the site's regulatory operations meet the standard every day, not just on inspection day. CAPA gets its own substantial treatment here because the RC is the person who drives corrective and preventive action in the regulatory domain. Not the CRC who documents a finding. Not the PI who signs off on the response. The RC who designs the correction, implements the prevention, and tracks the effectiveness. CAPA at the portfolio level is a different competency than CAPA at the study level.
Studied within the Regulatory Coordinator track. One payment of $179 USD covers all seven courses and the certificate.
Seven modules and twenty-seven lessons, each module closing with a knowledge check, and a final exam to complete the course.
Each is open now, exactly as enrolled learners read them. Every lesson in the course is written, cited and narrated the same way.
Dissects the fundamental failure mode of reactive inspection preparation and introduces the distinction between surface-level and substantive readiness.

Read the lesson freeCovers the FDA 483 response process in depth and provides substantive treatment of key procedural differences when the inspecting authority is EMA, MHRA, or Health Canada -- because an RC at a multi-national site or a site participating in global trials will encounter non-FDA inspections. Addresses regulatory, institutional, and sponsor notification obligations.

Not separately. Inspection Readiness and Regulatory Quality Management is the sixth course in the Regulatory Coordinator track, and the track is enrolled in as one: all seven courses, every final exam and the certificate, for one payment of $179 USD.
Fifty questions in 90 minutes, with 80% needed to pass, and up to three attempts. Each module also closes with a knowledge check.
Yes. Three lessons are open now: “Why reactive inspection preparation fails: the gap between 'looking ready' and 'being ready'”, “Root cause analysis for regulatory findings: getting past the symptom to the system failure” and “Responding to FDA 483 observations and international inspection findings: regulatory, institutional, and sponsor notification requirements”.
Yes. The course works from ICH E6(R3).
No. Access is yours for good. The Regulatory Coordinator credential the track awards is valid for two years.
