Target audience

The seminar "PRRC" is mainly aimed at the following roles:

•     Safety Officer for Medical Devices (what does "promotion" to PRRC mean to me?)
•     Managing Director (how do you deal with the fact that your PRRC can block the release of your products?)
•     Quality Manager (who is the responsible in the end?)
•     Development Manager (what about your responsibility for the conformity of technical documentation?)
•     Regulatory Affairs Manager

Experience as a safety officer is helpful, but not a prerequisite.
