Our flagship three-day 62304 training course provides a clear understanding of the 62304 standard for medical device software and much more. With this training, participants will compare and contrast 62304 with FDA expectations. Ample time is provided for discussing approaches for alignment between 62304 and FDA expectations. Additionally, participants will learn of other standards and technical reports pertinent to medical device software, HealthIT, medical mobile apps, and Software as a Medical Device (SaMD) products (e.g., 82304, 80002-1, 14971, 80001-2-x, 62366). Latest updates includes FDA Pre-Cert program, mobile apps, and machine learning / artificial intelligence (AI)
Participants will gain practical advice and pragmatic experience with all types of medical software. The course goal is to provide a clear understanding of how to effectively and efficiently integrate 62304 compliance into their software development lifecycle (SDLC).
