Overview:
The relationship between SOPs and training is not a common topic but one that affects a large number of employees in the manufacturing sector of pharmaceutical companies. For an SOP to be effective, it has to describe the process with an appropriate level of detail, striking a balance between flexibility and structure. If the writing of the SOP is not written with this objective in mind, it is likely to have a negative impact on training, because text that is ambiguous in the SOP will also be ambiguous in the training. In addition, an SOP is written to capture the essential steps of a process accurately, and its language tends to be "legalese."
