Why Should You Attend:
As simple as it sounds, the Root Cause Analysis and CAPA has always posed challenges to the organization and has been the #1 reason for 483 observations and Warning Letters for the last 15 years. Strong CAPA controls make an organization compliant and less vulnerable to customer complaints, nonconformance, deviations, etc. The CAPA controls rely on three important concepts namely, remedial correction; understanding the root cause and come up with corrective actions; and to have preventive actions to avert recurrence. If the root cause analysis is not done correctly, all the subsequent steps towards correction and prevention would be rendered ineffective and cause the issue to reoccur.
You will learn insights into root cause analysis and develop a logical approach to problem solving by accurately identifying causes of problems and have permanent solutions in place. This would help drive compliance and towards an organizational success.
