DIA's half-day virtual course works through how a global pharmacovigilance headquarters gets, and stays, ready for a regulator inspection — a single session, , 1–5 PM CET.
Date and format
- Date: 18 November 2026, single half-day session
- Format: virtual, 1:00-5:00 PM Central European Time
- Organizer: Drug Information Association (DIA)
- Faculty: Marcela Fialova, DrMed, COO, iVigee Services a.s.
What it covers
The course works through what it takes for a global PV headquarters to stay inspection-ready: the current PV inspection landscape, building a risk-based readiness program, the practical logistics of preparing for and managing an inspection once it is announced, and the documentation and dynamics that shape how an inspection actually runs. For a longer, multi-day treatment of the surrounding PV audit and inspection landscape, DIA's Advanced Pharmacovigilance Audits and Inspections course runs earlier the same month.
Who should attend
Pharmacovigilance leads and quality professionals based at, or responsible for, a company's global PV headquarters who own inspection readiness rather than a single affiliate's local response. The EMA/HMA EudraVigilance and Signal Detection Forum covers the signal-management side of the same PV data infrastructure. The full events directory lists other DIA, EMA and RAPS sessions we have verified on pharmacovigilance and inspection management.
