What it covers
FDLI describes the course as an overview of the legal and regulatory requirements governing advertising and promotion of FDA-regulated medical products — FDA's promotional oversight, the core principles of compliant promotion, the roles of other regulatory and enforcement agencies beyond FDA, and key considerations for digital, social media and pre-approval communications. FDLI notes the course uses practical examples and a case study so attendees can practice identifying compliance risk and evaluating promotional materials, rather than working through the requirements in the abstract.
Who should attend
Regulatory, legal and marketing staff who are new to promotional review and need the FDA framework in one session before sitting in on live material reviews. FDLI positions this as an introductory course — practitioners who already run a promotional-review process may get more from FDLI's fuller Advertising & Promotion for Medical Products Conference later the same month.
