The Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) regulations are designed to ensure the quality and integrity of non-clinical laboratory studies.  Within those requirements are defined roles and responsibilities including the Study Director (SD). 

This interactive and engaging course will provide you with an understanding of what is expected from individuals acting as Study Directors in GLP studies. Upon completion of this course, you will be able to identify the specific responsibilities of an SD and understand the importance of having a single point of control for a study 

This course can be booked on an individual or group basis. If you are interested in training for you or your organisation, please contact  training@towermains.com.
