In-company pharma training, from a Carnegie Mellon professor who owns a pharma wholesaler
A visiting CEO names the wrong regulator at dinner. The table goes polite. Polite is fatal. The deal dies between the starter and the main course.
Every market has a tell. The table hears it. The visitor never does. Pharma Lectures teaches your people the rules of the room before they sit down in it.
A catalog of 568 courses and growing. Told like a story, so nobody falls asleep.
Your board and your reps walk into any room in any market sounding like they have done business there for years. One price covers everyone, from the boardroom to the warehouse floor.
CDMOs, API manufacturers, wholesalers, traders. One price per company, never per seat. In your inbox within 72 hours or it is free.
Why the training file is the first thing they ask for
The law does not say "train your people". It says keep the proof.
Inadequate personnel training under 21 CFR 211.25(a) was among the ten most cited FDA inspection observations in the 2024 fiscal year (source). Not because people were untrained. Because nobody could prove they were.
"Continuing training should also be given, and its practical effectiveness should be periodically assessed. [...] Training records should be kept."
European Union, manufacturingEU GMP Guide, Part I, Chapter 2 Personnel, paragraph 2.11
"A record of all training should be kept, and the effectiveness of training should be periodically assessed and documented."
European Union, wholesaleGood Distribution Practice guideline 2013/C 343/01, section 2.4
"Training in current good manufacturing practice shall be conducted by qualified individuals on a continuing basis and with sufficient frequency to assure that employees remain familiar with CGMP requirements applicable to them."
United StatesCode of Federal Regulations, 21 CFR 211.25(a)
An inspection is not scheduled around your training calendar. A customer audit is not either. Every Pharma Lectures course closes with a multiple-choice questionnaire whose results are recorded per person, per module, with a timestamp, so the folder is already full when the question comes.

Every course, every role, the same seven things
Not just the sales team. The quality manager who faces the auditor, the regulatory officer who files the dossier, the production lead who signs the batch record, the finance person who reads the contract, the new hire who starts on Monday.
- Audio modules in all three lengths, included in every purchase. The briefing for the board and the sales floor, the standard run for regulatory and quality, the expanded walk-through for the bench. One price buys all three; each person takes the length their role needs. Listen on the commute, at the bench, in the car.
- Made to be listened to. A narrator with character, a story in every module and real examples from the buyer's side of the table. Not a read-out of the guideline that puts the room to sleep.
- Companion workbook. Exercises and checklists per module, ready to file.
- Full transcript. Searchable, printable, quotable in your procedures.
- Source for every fact. Each statement links to its guideline, regulation or paper, so an auditor can check it.
- Certificate per learner. Name, course, hours, guideline version, date.
- Auditable training record. Per-person export for your quality file, the document inspectors ask for under EU GMP Chapter 2.
