Training in method validation and analytical validation

Analytical method validation training

Analytical method validation training — sometimes also referred to as analytical validation training — aims to provide professionals with the principles, regulatory requirements, and practical tools needed to validate an analytical method, in accordance with current standards (ICH Q2(R2), ISO 17025, pharmacopoeias, etc.). It is intended for testing laboratories, quality control laboratories, R&D departments, or regulated industries (pharmaceutical, cosmetics, chemicals, agri-food, medical devices, etc.) that wish to:
Demonstrate the reliability and robustness of a developed or transferred analytical method
Meet regulatory or standards requirements in the context of audits, registrations, or production
Train their teams to structure a validation protocol, analyze key criteria (accuracy, precision, specificity, linearity, detection/quantification limits, etc.) and interpret the results.

Why take analytical validation training?

In the pharmaceutical and medical device sectors, analytical method validation is a key lever for ensuring the reliability of results and product compliance with quality requirements. The chemical analysis methods used must be rigorously validated to ensure the accuracy, reproducibility, and robustness of the data generated.

Beyond simply applying validation parameters (accuracy, precision, linearity, specificity, etc.), regulatory authorities — such as ANSM, EMA, or the FDA — expect manufacturers to be able to justify their methodological choices.

This requires a thorough understanding of analytical criteria, their relevance to the method’s intended use, and how they are integrated into a documented and defensible quality approach during inspections.

Analytical validation training helps laboratory, QA, or regulatory teams better master the requirements, secure their analytical processes, and build an autonomous, compliant validation strategy.

FILAB laboratory analytical validation training

Have you just recruited new talent to your laboratory? Are the competent person or persons no longer part of your teams? Do you want to further develop your expertise in analytical method validation?

FILAB laboratory offers analytical validation training, providing you with our expertise in method validation and support in interpreting the results.

Tailor-made training

This analytical validation training is fully tailor-made. It is adapted to your industry, your products, your analytical methods, and your regulatory requirements.
In the pharmaceutical industry, it incorporates ICH Q2(R2) standards, EMA or FDA requirements, and covers cases such as HPLC validation for assay of an active ingredient or impurity testing.
For medical device manufacturers, it takes into account ISO 13485, ISO 17025, and applies for example to the validation of a cleanliness test, a residue assay method, or a material control.
You identify the essential analytical parameters (precision, accuracy, specificity, LOQ, measurement uncertainties). You learn how to build a structured validation protocol, carry out the tests, process the data, and compile a compliant and defensible file for audits.
Each session is led by technical experts. The examples, exercises, and materials are adapted to your methods and your industrial environment. A practical training course, immediately applicable in the laboratory.

FILAB, approved training organization and accredited laboratory

Choosing FILAB laboratory for analytical validation training means benefiting from support provided by an approved training organization and an ISO 17025-accredited laboratory, expert in the development and validation of analytical methods (HPLC, GC, ICP, UV…). Thanks to its hands-on experience with pharmaceutical industries, API manufacturers, and medical device manufacturers, FILAB offers tailor-made training courses directly adapted to regulatory requirements (ICH Q2(R2), ISO 17025, pharmacopoeias) and to the specific issues faced by participants. The training enables QA, R&D, or quality control teams to master key analytical parameters, structure robust validations, and justify their methodological choices to regulatory authorities.

FAQ

Why is analytical validation essential in a regulated environment?

Because it ensures the reliability and traceability of analytical results, essential elements for demonstrating product compliance with regulatory authority requirements (FDA, EMA, ANSM…). A non-validated method can jeopardize an entire batch release, a regulatory submission, or an industrial transfer.

Which standards must analytical validation meet?

The main standards include the ICH Q2(R2) guidelines for medicines, ISO/IEC 17025 for laboratories, as well as the specific requirements of pharmacopoeias (USP, Ph. Eur.). For medical devices, the requirements of ISO 13485 and the IMDRF guidelines may also apply.

Who is this training intended for within an industrial site?

This training is aimed at analytical laboratory teams, Quality Assurance (QA) managers, regulatory teams, as well as analytical development project managers. Anyone involved in drafting, implementing, or interpreting an analytical validation is concerned.

What are the main parameters studied during the training?

The training covers in detail the parameters required for validating an analytical method: accuracy, precision (repeatability/reproducibility), specificity, linearity, range, limit of detection, limit of quantification, robustness, stability, etc., as well as their statistical interpretation.

How can this training facilitate audits and inspections?

It enables teams to justify their methodological choices in a well-argued way, build clear and compliant protocols, and confidently answer auditors’ questions about the validity of results. A well-documented and well-understood validation is a strategic asset during regulatory inspections.
