Familiarity with the European PV framework is recommended for participants.
Aims and objectives
The PSMF is now widely used and accepted globally. However, specific local requirements must be addressed separately. There are even additional documents required within Europe, such as in France. The creation and maintenance of a core PSMF and local annexes is therefore becoming increasingly important and challenging.

This seminar will equip you with the skills to create, maintain, and optimise an effective PSMF. You will also gain insights into the specific requirements of the EU, French, EAEU, and Arab PSMFs. Benefit from the expertise of our Big Pharma professionals.

    Testimonials

    It was very helpful and extensive, in particular with respect to local vs. global requirements. I liked the fact that the local PSMF requirements in different non-EU countries were presented seperately and in detail.

    well-structured course that provides insights and tips for good management of the PSMF according to all international and local regulations.

    informative, interactive, great group with lot of interessting questions.

    great preparation of the speakers and their ability to involve all the paticipants!
