About

The Post-Market Surveillance & Pharmacovigilance Learning Path is designed to provide professionals with end-to-end competency in the regulatory obligations, operational processes, and strategic oversight activities required for post-approval drug and device safety surveillance. Covering the full GVP module framework, ICSR case handling, signal detection, literature monitoring, PSUR and PBRER management, real-world evidence, PV audit, device vigilance, and AI applications in pharmacovigilance, this programme equips professionals to manage the complete safety lifecycle of approved pharmaceutical and medical device products.

Participants will develop a thorough understanding of the regulatory reporting timelines, benefit-risk assessment frameworks, post-approval study requirements, and audit readiness practices that underpin a compliant and effective pharmacovigilance system — as well as the emerging role of AI in transforming post-market safety operations.

How this differs from the Pharmacovigilance & Drug Safety Learning Path

The Post-Market Surveillance & Pharmacovigilance Learning Path takes a strategic and regulatory oversight perspective — covering the full PV system from GVP foundations through signal management, PSUR/PBRER reporting, RWE and non-interventional studies, PV audit, and device vigilance. It is designed for professionals who need broad regulatory and compliance knowledge across the post-market safety landscape.

In comparison, the Pharmacovigilance & Drug Safety Learning Path focuses more narrowly on operational day-to-day PV activities — case handling, literature screening, PSUR management, and AI tools. This broader post-market learning path is best suited to QPPV nominees, PV managers, regulatory affairs specialists, and audit professionals seeking comprehensive oversight competency across the product post-approval lifecycle.
