Human Capital Development / Strategic Grievance Handling Strategic Grievance Handling Strategic Grievance Handling approaches the grievance and arbitration process as an opportunity to advance organizational strategy, goals and objectives while at the same time improving relationships within the organization. The course teaches the different purposes and scopes of competitive and collaborative dispute resolution systems and how that can be applied to the grievance process. It approaches grievance handling as involving three sometimes contradictory skills and activities – investigating, advocating and mediating. Key emphasis is placed on developing participants' mediation skills within the grievance process through role-play and feedback.

This course teaches the key strategic and tactical process and behavioral choices that separate rational problem solving and rational competitive bargaining from negotiating with the irrational, violent and narcissistic in the workplace.

Who cares for the care provider? Both paid and non-paid persons who offer their compassion, skills and resources to those in need are often at risk for burnout, compassion fatigue or vicarious traumatization, creating costly health and emotional challenges and also gaps in expertise and caring.

Focus groups held by HCEI across the US confirm the need to celebrate the spirit and journey of caring persons while teaching self-preservation skills for the future. When caring persons care for themselves they provide better care for others. Seminar participants will be able to: Understand dynamics of providing care Articulate how each person experiences stress uniquely Identify symptoms of compassion fatigue Utilize practical, proven solutions and exercises for stress reduction Set healthy goals and create a future response plan for stress.

It’s a paradox: As a member of a virtual team, you’re often more visible than you might be in person. Why? Because effective communications, trust and a strong virtual presence need to be quickly established when working with other team members. If this is done, you’ll stand out as a valued contributor. If not, you risk standing out as a non-contributor. Take this course to learn how to establish your presence and communicate effectively in a virtual realm, build strong virtual team relationships, and collaborate with success. In addition, you’ll gain tools and techniques to influence others, address differences before they become conflicts, foster trust and credibility, and much more.

Statistics is a useful decision making tool in the clinical research arena. When working in a field where a p-value can determine the next steps on development of a drug or procedure, it is imperative that decision makers understand the theory and application of statistics.

How do you know if you are pressing the right key, let alone performing the best test?

If you go "off label" with advertising and promotion, FDA's hammer can hit hard and seemingly out of the blue. Advertising and promotion for devices is weak and lacks legal clarity. For drugs, the regulations are prescriptive and guidance documents clamp down on nuances. Marketing and regulatory affairs departments must collaborate to avoid the hammer and penalties of FDA. The roadblock, however is that marketing managers and regulatory affairs managers rarely reach common ground and are loathe to even consult with each other.

Testing is the science of identifying defects, so that they can be corrected, and of demonstrating that a system meets intended requirements. Testing computerized systems is considered a fundamental verification activity and appropriate testing is a regulatory expectation as described in many regulations e.g. EU GMP Annex 11. "Evidence of appropriate testing methods and test scenarios should be demonstrated. Particularly system (process) parameter limits, data limits and error handling should be considered" The regulated company is responsible for demonstrating compliance and fitness for use. Effective testing demonstrates compliance with regulatory requirements and ensures patient safety, product quality and data integrity as a result of controlling identified risks.
