Overview

Good Clinical Laboratory Practice (GCLP) was first drafted and published in 2003. Then, in 2006 the World Health Organisation (WHO) published GCLP guidance on its website as the standard for laboratories undertaking samples from Clinical Trials.

GCLP guidance identifies the systems required and procedures to be followed within an organisation which conducts analyses of samples from Clinical Trials in compliance with the requirements of Good Clinical Practice (GCP).

This interactive and engaging GCLP course provides Sponsors, laboratory management, project managers, CRAs and quality assurance personnel with an understanding of the framework for a quality system in the analysis of Clinical Trial samples. It will ensure that all laboratory processes and results are GCLP compliant.

Costa asked:

Hello dear In this course will I learn to develop new vaccines cures drugs please?

Answer:

Dear Costa, Thank you for your enquiry. Our Good Clinical Laboratory Practice (GCLP) course will enable you to adhere to the standards laboratories need to follow if they perform analysis or evaluation of clinical trial samples. This ensures the analysis of samples from clinical trials by laboratories is ethical, reliable and can accurately be used to support the findings of that trial. The development of new vaccines is something that would be covered by a medical or life-sciences degree.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
