Due to the high level of regulation and the need to be audit ready 24/7 Outcome Training Associates Limited is often asked to consider whether the client meets the "best practice" standard for Training and Development (Learning and Development).

Some time ago a major client sought support to identify the range of training / learning needs of its' business. This process had to be designed to populate a mangement database which would stand the rigours of an FDA audit and the Global Corporate Strategy.

This resulted in:

• Training Matrices for over 200 roles from Operators in process / packaging, to Operations Manager.
• Training Needs Analysis for roles
• Highlighting of regulatory issues
• Inclusion of other teams
• Warehouse
• QO
• Labs
• Maintenance
• HR / Procurement / L&D

The outcome has already highlighted and produced improvements in:

• Induction training
• cGMP training
• Safety training
• SOPs
• Audit compliance

• Train the Trainer
• Assessor training
• Development of Performance Standards
