Cleanroom Behavior with or without Gowning Qualification

Short description

This behavior course is held at Biotech Training Facility, where participants have the opportunity to see a working GMP facility with state-of-the-art cleanrooms.

During this training participants are introduced to the strict requirements that apply on entering cleanrooms and they will learn why these requirements are absolutely necessary. The Cleanroom Behavior Course is a prerequisite for anyone who, incidentally or frequently, will have to be present or work in a cleanroom.  It is also an important refresher course for (intensive) users of cleanrooms as the knowledge and skills gained during the course will be tested to ensure that all conditions for an optimal behavior in the cleanroom are met.

Participants who have also opted for the Gowning Qualification module will be instructed by the trainers from Biotech Training Facility. These participants learn the procedures for efficient gowning and put this knowledge directly into practice in the cleanrooms. After this session they will be qualified on their correct gowning by performing microbiological tests on gowning and gloves. The results will be presented on the certificate from the Biotech Training Facility.

VCCN Certificate/CleanroomPas ®/Company register

At the end of the course, the participants will also take a written test. If they pass, the participants will receive a certificate and the CleanroomPas ® in the form of a badge. This personal CleanroomPas ® has a passport photo and an issue date.

Benefits of the CleanroomPas ® are:

the administrator of a cleanroom knows that the wearer has taken notice of the requirements and obligations as regards access to and presence in cleanrooms.
the issue date on the CleanroomPas ® allows the administrator of the cleanroom to make demands to the validity of the CleanroomPas ®.
the participant is entitled to follow a refresher course and follow-up courses of the VCCN.
the participating companies also receive a certificate of attendance. VCCN registers these companies in the CGC register ®. The CGC register ® can be found on the VCCN website and in VCCN Magazine.
