This project seeks to develop an effective training program for the GMPs. Common issues regarding cGMP guidelines were investigated and compiled into a database. A novel computer-based training program in a game show format was developed linking to the question database. This software was tested at Lonza in Walkersville, Maryland and Hood College. Matched pair t-test analysis shows that survey matching scores improved by almost two points on average for all participants and each trainee's self-evaluation of his or her cGMP knowledge increased by almost one point on a ten-point scale. This training delivered an effective and unique way of improving training compliance.59 pagesen-USTHE EFFECTIVENESS OF A NOVEL cGMP REFRESHER TRAINING PROGRAM ON THE AWARENESS OF FEDERAL REGULATIONS IMPACTING BIOMEDICAL RESEARCHText
