Personnel & CGMP Training Audits: Building a Competent, Compliant Pharma Workforce

By Admin

Introduction
In pharmaceutical manufacturing, even the best systems and equipment are only as good as the people operating them. Personnel and training audits are essential to ensure that staff members are properly qualified, consistently trained, and fully compliant with regulatory expectations.

What Are Personnel & Training Audits?
These audits evaluate whether a supplier’s or vendor’s employees have the appropriate qualifications, skills, documentation, and ongoing training programs to carry out their roles in a GMP-compliant environment.

Key Areas Reviewed in a Training Audit

  • Job descriptions and competency alignment
  • Training records and frequency of updates
  • SOP training completion and assessments
  • Onboarding and GMP induction programs
  • Cross-functional training for flexibility and compliance

Why It Matters in Supplier Audits

  • Ensures suppliers follow GMP training standards
  • Prevents quality deviations due to human error
  • Verifies data integrity and accurate documentation
  • Provides insight into workforce stability and capability
