Regulatory Affairs STAR Programme

Regulatory Affairs - Training Programme

Regulatory Affairs (RA) is essential to ensure that pharmaceutical products can be developed, authorised and maintained on the market and to guarantee that they are aligned with all applicable legislation and regulations. Read more about Regulatory Affairs: here.

This training programme will provide you with a good introduction to the different areas and types of activities within Regulatory Affairs and with the knowledge to carry on or develop your career in any regulatory affairs department.

You can now select:

• Book the training without the internships - only to attend the full week training (you can then choose to do the internship as a complement and pay the extra fee)
• Book the STAR Programme - apply for the programme (internships are included).

The STAR Programme will provide the capabilities you need to become a Junior Regulatory Affairs Associate. Most employers will require practical experience on the job before considering your application. At ECCRT, we realise that this situation limits the inflow of young, intelligent and motivated young people.

To further develop your potential, this STAR Programme combines a training programme of 1 week with practical internships over a period of 6 months. You have the option to extend the internships for an additional 6 months, subject to mutual agreement.

  This Programme has been developed for you, to increase your chances of entering the area of Regulatory Affairs.
