NSF Health Sciences’s Medical Device Diploma

In collaboration with Sheffield Hallam University

What is a Qualified Person?

The European commission recently issued proposed legislation for manufacturers in the medical device industry to have a medical device “Qualified Person” (QP) in regulatory affairs and quality assurance.

The person specification in the proposed legislation parallels a similar requirement in the Pharmaceutical industry, and certain medical device regulations under German law.

Based on this information, NSF Health Sciences and Sheffield Hallam University have collaborated to produce a pathway to becoming a medical device Qualified Person. The programme consists of three steps, the Postgraduate Certificate, Postgraduate Diploma and gaining a medical device Qualified Person status with or without an MSc.

NSF Health Sciences offers a series of professional training courses to address the demands for a medical device Qualified Person responsible for the most critical phases of your Product Lifecycle
