Cannabis Process Validation provides a comprehensive understanding of how to qualify cannabis seeds, validate cultivation procedures, and perform process performance qualification. It also covers key areas such as packaging, cleaning, and an overview of system validation. This training enables participants to understand validation approaches and components necessary to design validation protocols, develop validation plans, and train employees effectively on validation practices.
Participants will gain the latest insights into process-related validation updates within the Canadian cannabis industry. This makes the training highly relevant for professionals and job seekers aiming for roles such as cultivation and validation technicians, validation assistants, and validation specialists.
The training begins with an introduction to process validation guidelines based on both FDA and Health Canada standards. It outlines the requirements set forth by regulatory bodies such as EU-GMP, GMP, and cGMP, helping learners understand the global expectations for cannabis process validation.
Participants will then explore how to perform various types of validation, including cannabis process validation, process performance qualification, packaging validation, cleaning validation, and method validation. This section also explains the importance of integrating all aspects of validation into the production lifecycle.
The program further delves into Process Performance Qualification (PPQ) and Continued Process Verification (CPV), alongside instruction on creating a Master Validation Plan. Attendees will learn how to construct a robust validation strategy that includes process descriptions, identification of critical and non-critical parameters, sampling and testing plans, testing criteria, and acceptance criteria.
To reinforce learning, the course concludes with the development of a validation report and a case study discussion. Throughout the session, participants are encouraged to engage with the class and lead trainers for clarification or deeper insight into the material.
Upon successful completion, participants will be able to understand all required process validation procedures within cannabis production facilities, including cultivation, extraction, and packaging. They will gain the skills to apply various validation approaches, design validation protocols, determine validation plans, write comprehensive reports, and train employees to enhance validation performance.
Graduates of this program can pursue a range of job opportunities, including roles such as cultivation technician, validation assistant, validation specialist, validation scientist, and validation engineer.
This course is ideal for individuals seeking to build a career in cannabis validation. It is particularly beneficial for licensed producers, responsible persons (RP), master growers (MG), quality assurance personnel (QAP), engineers, validation associates, technicians, technologists, and consultants.
