Gain Legal Certainty for Upcoming Audits and Inspections

This seminar will show you how to properly qualify and classify your AI-based medical devices and IVDs in accordance with the AI Act—as the foundation for a robust regulatory strategy and legally compliant documentation. Using practical examples and exercises, you’ll learn how to implement the requirements of the AI Act, MDR, and IVDR step by step: from the intended use through requirements for the risk and quality management system to the technical documentation.

“What I particularly liked about this seminar was its practical relevance, its focus on the essentials, and the personalized way questions were addressed. It helped me clarify some very important points!”

Document Correctly Once Instead of Twice: How to Meet the Requirements of the AI Act and the MDR/IVDR at the Same Time

You’ll learn how the AI Act and the MDR/IVDR are related in substance and how to expand existing processes and documents in a targeted manner, rather than building new structures in parallel. This will enable you to create a streamlined AI file that complies with both regulations—without redundancies, contradictions, or unnecessary additional documents.

Clear Planning and Reliable Budgets for your AI Act Implemen­tation

​​​​​​​You will receive specific tools for your project planning, enabling you to approach your implemen­tation project in a structured manner. After the seminar, you will know exactly what resources you need and will be able to budget costs reliably – no more unpleasant surprises.

Prove your AI Compe­tence – with a Certificate

At the end of the seminar, there will be an optional online exam (duration: approx. 20 min). If you pass this exam, you will receive a certificate in addition to your certificate of participation. This certificate documents the knowledge you acquired during the seminar and helps you demonstrate your AI competence in accordance with Article 4 of the AI Act.

Learning Objectives

By attending this seminar, participants will achieve the following objectives:

  • Participants will be able to identify which requirements for AI-based medical devices and IVDs already arise from the MDR/IVDR and which additional obligations the AI Act introduces.
  • They will be able to determine whether their medical devices or IVDs fall within the scope of the AI Act (qualification) and, where applicable, determine the risk class (classification).
  • They will be able to take AI-specific aspects such as bias, robustness and explainability into account when developing and documenting their products.
  • Participants will understand the structure of the AI Act, be able to navigate the legislation with confidence, identify relevant requirements and apply them to their own practice.
  • As a result, they will be familiar with the various requirements of the AI Act for manufacturers and operators of AI systems.
  • They can identify and assess differences, additions and overlaps between the AI Act and the MDR/IVDR.
  • They are able to carry out a gap analysis and can determine which SOPs, work instructions, templates or checklists they need to create or adapt.
