Are you planning to put a medical device on the market? Are you a medical device manufacturing company, or a supplier of medtech services? If your customers have certain requirements on your quality management system, this course is for you! Here is your chance to learn everything about the new 2016 version! The harmonised EN ISO 13485:2016 standard is used for compliance with the regulations and constitutional requirements needed to be able for supplying medtech products and associated services in the EU. By employing a quality management system according to the standard, you fulfil the applicable sections of Läkemedelverket’s rule LVFS 2003:11 (which corresponds to the medical device directive, MDD).

Welcome to our two-day course in EN ISO 13485:2016! In this course, we will explain the requirements of the standard, and describe its interpretation and application.
