Ms. Maifarth began her career with FDA as an investigator and microbiologist and then served as an FDA Compliance Officer for more than 22 years. As a Senior Compliance Officer, Ms. Maifarth successfully completed numerous regulatory actions such as warning letters, seizures, injunctions, prosecutions, inspection warrants, license suspensions and revocations to bring firms and products into compliance.

    During the two day long FDA inspections seminar, the instructors will discuss why the FDA conducts inspections and the sanctions available to FDA for those companies who choose not to comply with FDA requirements. They will also cover dos and don'ts, how to choose the core inspection team, facilitators, Subject Matter Experts (SME's), runners and scribes. This course will provide the attendees an understanding on what to expect during the FDA inspection, including how to communicate with the investigators, how to run front and back rooms, and present documents and records. This two day interactive workshop includes the real life inspection scenarios/case studies.
