GMP in Pharma Constructions

Design pharma facilities and areas with GMP in mind from the first design step

Learn the essential regulatory knowledge you need to design or renovate areas in pharma facilities. Understand key design requirements early and reduce the risk of redesign, delays, and compliance issues.

If you work with the design of buildings for the pharmaceutical industry, you need to understand the GMP requirements that shape the facility from an early stage. This course gives you a practical introduction to Good manufacturing Practice (GMP) and Good Engineering Practice (GEP) in pharma projects.

As an architect or engineer, you already know how to create functional and well-designed buildings — this course helps you understand the highly regulated pharma environment, where layout, flows, pressure, and access must support both people, processes, and product quality.

The course focuses on the topics you need to understand to make better design choices and work more effectively. You will gain insight into how GMP requirements influence facility design, and how to take these requirements into account in both new build and renovation projects.

Teaching combines presentations and case-based group work, so you can connect regulatory requirements with concrete design decisions in practice.

 

The course language is English.


At the course you will meet:

Anette Yan Marcussen, Senior Pharma Consultant, Marcussen Group ApS
