We will be covering topics such as

Dawn ran a very informative session about GDP guidance and the role of the Responsible Person. This helped me understand further about my role as the Responsible Person and how to stay 100% compliant according to the guidelines. I also picked up key points on what to look for when looking at potential suppliers and warehouse facilities. All together an excellent session, worth every penny!

Having just completed the very informative API and Clinical Trail course (thank you Shankar) I was reminded of the traps we can fall into whereby we try to keep ourselves in our little boxes. At the MHRA symposium, I have heard several times comments such as:- “no, I’m not doing the GMP day as it’s not relevant to me” or “GDP? Oh, that doesn’t apply to us as we are manufacturers”. I am sure these comments were made well out of the earshot of MHRA personnel and on the face of it seem harmless enough, though clearly wrong.
I truly believe that we should all expand our knowledge and understanding as much as possible, and certainly where there are crossovers with our speciality. For a Pharmacist or wholesaler, knowing more about GMP, APIs and Clinical Trials must be useful in our ability to fulfil our obligations in our own field. Yes, some aspects of GMP are very technical but there are big parts of it that can be used positively in the GDP arena.
As my exasperated tutors used to say during my pharmacy degree, “you will only get the most out of the topic and excel, if you read around the subject”.
A very informative overview of GDP and the role of the RP. Great to be able to discuss GDP issues with Brian and with others on the course.
“Very clear, simple to follow. Interactive. Helpful.”
Ade – Rating 9/10
Very good overview of GDP requirements which has given me a much better understanding of client requirements for the services and products we supply.

“The training was very informative and well-structured. I found it to be both engaging and relevant to my role. The material was clear, and the examples provided were helpful in understanding the key concepts. I especially appreciated the practical application tips shared. Brian did an excellent job of explaining complex topics in an easy-to-understand manner. The pace was just right, and the interactive elements kept the session engaging. I`m so glad I`ve decided to have the training face to face, it really makes a difference in terms of engagement.” – Cogent RP Training – November 2024

Both Jackie and Sandeep made it really easy to understand the content – they encouraged discussion but also made sure that focus was given to areas specific to the attendees.
Overall I enjoyed the course and found it far less overwhelming than I expected.
The course is very informative and comprehensive which covers all aspects of EU GDP guidelines.

“Very informative and John was able to demonstrate a great knowledge of export. Having already completed Pharmacy Consulting’s GDP training, I was able to understand the content and what John was explaining in regard to export”
Anonymous – Rating 9/10
“Really enjoyed the training session over the last 3 days, John was a great presenter who did really well considering he had an
audience from all over the UK…infact the world! I’m sure the face to face/classroom style presentation would have been more
interactive as I certainly missed being able to bounce off others but this is no fault of John or the course contents. Learned so
much from the past few days, more than I actually realised that I would. Thank you!” February 2021
“I would like to thank Brian for coming up to us – he made a difficult subject easy to understand and also helped us with real life

Just wanted to say thank you for the training last week, was education and fun, and it was great to be able to spend time with a professional auditor.
As a busy family run logistics business we are really grateful for the expertise of Pharmacy Consulting who came alongside us, pulling out all the stops to meet tight deadlines and helping us to elevate the standard of our Quality System.

“This is the pharma cogent course “ronseal” excellent through the whole process”
“I found this course much more interesting and accessible than i thought it would be. Nicely paced with enough information to be challenging and thought provoking but not overwhelming. A few of the initials could do with explaining though.”
Jennifer Kirby – Course Rating 9/10
The GPD session at PCL enabled me to focus on the really important things when it comes to getting your wholesale licence.
Dawn structured the workshop in a very lively and interactive way so it is easy to follow and to use her ideas for your own business. It was very helpful, I decided to book the Audit training too.
The day was fun and I enjoyed the review of GDP requirements!
Jackie has the experience and ability to support new and existing pharmacy businesses unlike any other.
We contracted PCL provide us with help and guidance and training, relating to pharmaceutical transportation, we found Jackie and her team to be helpful, knowledgeable and pragmatic in their advice. The training sessions went well and were very useful in helping us understand the subject.
We looked long and hard for an industry expert in this field and we certainly found one in PCL.
