The professional practice of regulatory affairs is becoming increasingly harmonized; regulatory intelligence, submissions, operations, and strategy are evolving into globally based endeavors. Organizations, including the International Conference on Harmonization, are setting common guidelines and standards for these and other regulatory practices, such that marketing approval and postmarket surveillance requirements are geographically converging. The Graduate Certificate in Global Regulatory Affairs is designed to allow students to study convergent regulatory requirements in Canada, the European Union, the EMEA countries, and the ASEAN nations. By examining specific biomedical regulatory requirements in these countries, students can efficiently utilize their knowledge of such requirements through global, rather than geographically based, regulatory practice.
