New to pharma? Start here.

Beginner courses are for people stepping into the industry — new operators, junior QA officers, warehouse staff, lab techs, students, anyone switching from another sector. No GMP or GDP background needed. You will leave with the vocabulary, the framework, and a clear picture of how the rules shape your day-to-day work.

For Pharma & Biotech

What you will get out of a beginner course

Beginner courses are pitched at people just walking into a pharma or biotech environment for the first time.

No prior GMP or GDP knowledge needed. The level works equally well for people switching into quality, production or QC from another role inside pharma, and for people coming in from another industry entirely. Either way, you finish the course knowing the rules, the language, and where your role sits inside the system.

Roles that fit a beginner course

If you have never had formal GMP or GDP training, or it has been a long time, this is the level for you.

The roles we most often see in beginner classrooms:

QA officer operator production administrative support QC analyst pharmacist (in training) QA specialist batch reviewer graduates students warehouse employee persons transitioning from a different industry to pharma
