QMSR Training
Training on the new FDA 21 CFR 820 Quality Management System Regulation for medical devices.
Don’t Risk Non-Compliance! We offer QMSR training courses for the Quality Management System Regulation
The FDA is replacing the long-standing Quality System Regulation (QSR). This new regulation impacts all medical device manufacturers in the U.S. All employees whose work impacts quality will need new training, to replace their old GMP training for medical devices.
We offer GMP training for QMSR, including online leader training, employee training, and LMS compliant training packages (e.g. SCORM).
If you are looking for our training course on QMSR implementation, see our page on QMSR implementation.

What are the Key Changes from QSR to QMSR?

Goodbye to Quality System Regulation. The title for 21 CFR 820 is changed to Quality Management System Regulation (QMSR).
FDA Incorporated by reference ISO 13485:2016 Quality Management System requirements into 21 CFR 820.
The FDA also incorporated by reference ISO 9000:2015 clause 3, Definitions. These are necessary for the application of ISO 13485:2016. The FDA also included additional definitions in the QMSR, as terms and definitions matter to the FDA, and they should matter to you.
The FDA will add new requirements to 21 CFR 820 that will supplement ISO 13485:2016 in order to align with Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act requirements for medical devices. These include additional requirements for the quality management system, control of records, and labeling and packaging controls. This means that following ISO 13485:2016 alone is insufficient to comply with the new Quality Management System Regulation.
The Current 21 CFR 820 QSR is Going Away!

ISO 13485:2016 is no Longer Voluntary!
ISO 13485:2016 will no longer be a voluntary standard to the U.S. FDA. It will be a regulation that the FDA can and will enforce, including the ISO 13485 requirement for risk management throughout the product lifecycle and quality systems.
