Graduate from Pharmaceutical & Biotechnology Advanced Diploma Program

I joined NACPT as a student this year and enrolled in a course titled “Industrial Pharmaceutical & Bio-Pharmaceutical Modern Technology”. It is an excellent program for students who wish to enter the pharma industry and professionals who are already serving the pharma industry. The main reason being that this program content is very carefully tailored to cater the needs of the pharma industry. It covers GMP, GLP, Validation (process, cleaning, packaging), Regulatory Affairs, Technical writing and important techniques such as GC & HPLC. I love this program, as it covers almost all the aspects of the pharma industry. All the instructors are stalwarts of the pharma industry and they teach the essential needs of the industry. Moreover, hands-on training is provided on important techniques (GC, HPLC). I strongly recommend NACPT for students & professionals to choose the required course program and wish them a good future in their careers. Year 2017.
