About
Generative AI training provides a practical overview of the principles and practices required to use AI safely and effectively in regulatory and medical writing. It helps learners understand how AI can support drafting, summarisation, document review, consistency checks, and other writing activities while maintaining human oversight and accountability.
This Generative AI for Regulatory and Medical Writing Course & Certification covers prompt engineering, hallucination and fabrication risks, source verification, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), AI-assisted regulatory and medical writing, data privacy, quality control, traceability, AI-use disclosure, and audit-ready documentation. The course also covers practical applications across Clinical Study Reports, safety narratives, PBRERs/PSURs, informed consent forms, lay summaries, CMC and labelling content, and regulatory responses. Upon successful completion, learners receive a certification demonstrating their understanding of responsible and controlled use of Generative AI in regulated life-sciences writing.
