Basic introduction of course and important components

This course has excellent right up. Detailed information is presented in an appealing style through easy and understandable language. Easy overview of the most important topic in Pharmacovigilance with the most relevant information written in a precise manner. Nothing to dislike except the colors used in handouts are some time very light and hard to be read in hard copy

My favorite module so far

I enjoyed this module so much, it describes the PV operations thoroughly, specially the case processing and medical review lessons are key to understand the core of PV operations. It would have been nice to learn about unanticipated drug reactions, urgent safety measures, INDSRs vs SUSARs and analysis of similar events.

Excellent course in a rich PV training course

I got my first PV position while completing the Silver Certificate course. Here with the Gold Certificate, it builds on this strong foundation, teaching the key mechanics and functions of pharmacovigilance with an international scope. This is key for any PV professional who is looking to enter and thrive in an increasingly competitive PV market.
