What Our Learner's SayWhat Our Learner's Say

I found the Quality Risk Management & ISO14971 Training Course “Succinct and informative; Excellent to have 14971 versus MDR. I now understand how to describe top down; bottom up approaches; and where reviewing GSPRs fit with Risk Management. John (Lafferty) is a great trainer, direct, humorous, and efficient.”
