The Power of a Training Management System in Achieving Excellence and Regulatory Compliance

In pharma manufacturing, errors result in wasted time, wasted materials, and the risk of warning letters or worse. A Quality Management System plays a crucial role in avoiding those outcomes and ensuring compliance. But there is something else that helps greatly - proper training. And that's why a Training Management System (TMS) is so important.

A TMS ensures that everyone knows their role, is fully trained, and is up-to-date on every change. Manufacturers can create many different training plans and related courses for all employee roles as well as all sites, tailoring the training programs to the specific needs of each employee, role, and site.

For example, you could create a training plan for new employees and a training plan for managers. You can create courses on specific topics, such as manufacturing procedures, quality control procedures, and safety procedures. And you can link these training programs to all sites to ensure everyone is trained on the same information and procedures.

The Benefits of a TMS

What are the many benefits of using a TMS to evaluate training? Here are a few:

Improved training evaluation and effectiveness:?By using quizzes and preset training assets to evaluate training, pharmaceutical manufacturers can ensure that employees are learning and retaining the information that they need to perform their jobs effectively.

• Quizzes can be used to assess employees' knowledge of specific training topics. They can be delivered online, and they can be multiple-choice, short-answer, or essay quizzes.
• Preset training assets are pre-created training materials that can be used to deliver training to employees. Preset training assets can include interactive e-learning modules, video tutorials, and job aids.

Reduced risk of errors:?By ensuring that employees are properly trained, pharmaceutical manufacturers can reduce the risk of human errors that can lead to quality problems.

Reduced costs:?A TMS can help to reduce the costs associated with training by automating many of the tasks involved in training evaluation, such as creating and delivering quizzes and tracking employee progress.

Improved compliance:?A TMS can help pharmaceutical manufacturers improve compliance with regulatory requirements by tracking employee training progress and ensuring that employees are trained on the latest procedures. This can help to reduce the risk of quality problems and regulatory citations.

Improved employee engagement:?Employees are more likely to be engaged in training if they know that they will be evaluated on what they have learned.

The TMS ensures a level of quality and performance that goes far beyond compliance. It drives the organization to new performance levels and helps them win their race to deliver the highest quality products. So if you don't have one today, maybe it's time you looked into getting one.
