About

The Pharmacovigilance (PV) Learning Path is a comprehensive, structured program designed to build end-to-end expertise in drug and medical device safety in alignment with global regulatory expectations. This learning path covers the complete pharmacovigilance lifecycle—from adverse event collection and case processing to signal detection, risk assessment, audits, and regulatory compliance across multiple regions.

Learners will gain a strong understanding of international PV regulations, safety documentation, inspection readiness, and post-marketing surveillance requirements. The curriculum is designed to bridge theory with real-world application, ensuring learners are prepared to support pharmacovigilance operations in pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and medical device organizations.

This learning path is suitable for beginners entering pharmacovigilance, as well as professionals in clinical research, regulatory affairs, quality, and safety roles who want to strengthen or expand their PV capabilities. Upon completion, learners will be equipped to contribute effectively to patient safety, regulatory submissions, audits, and global safety systems.
