"It was great to hear from someone who had actually been through the audit. Great topics covered and really eased our worries about converting to MDSAP. Thanks for offering!"

"I really appreciate the work done by R&Q. It really helps to get in touch with the updates and upcoming changes as well as challenges."

"Very good seminar with straight forward answers."

This session was presented by R&Q Principal Engineer Rem Siekmann and Cynosure EVP of Regulatory Affairs and Clinical Development, Connie Hoy - who was the team leader for two successful MDSAP inspections.

The webinar also features an expert Q&A panel where Rem and Connie were joined by R&Q's Jake O'Donnell (Senior FDA Compliance Principal who served 21 years as an FDA investigator) and Mark Swanson (Director of Minnesota Operations and member of ISO Technical Commitee 210 and Working Group 1 for ISO 13485).

Webinar Details

MDSAP can potentially offer a variety of important advantages. While currently optional for FDA, it will be mandatory for Health Canada in January of 2019. Times will be busy with limited qualified registrars, ISO 13485:2016 implementation by March 2019, and EU MDR by 2020.

Attend this webinar if you want to understand MDSAP inside and out and be sufficiently prepared.
