About us
Each person who chooses one of our courses is unique and special to us.

Why
Quality Assurance Training Lab
It all started in December 2018 when, with Quality Culture, Karyn Santoro realised an idea that had been swirling around in her head for some time: to focus on practical and accessible training for the pharmaceutical world.
For her, who has worked in the sector for years, it was necessary to create practical courses on the figure of the Quality Assurance Specialist, on GMP standards and much more.
And how do you reach everyone, even those who live in a small town or already work, but want to grow further? How do we reach those companies that want to focus on training for their employees and collaborators?
Through online and on-demand training.
Quality Assurance Training Lab was born out of this certainty.


How we operate
We know that there is still a deep gap between academia and the world of work in the pharmaceutical industry.
That is why we have decided to work in a different way to all other masters and courses in Quality Assurance.
In each of our courses there is everything we believe in:
- accessible, quality training based on field experience
- solidity through practical, hands-on courses and lecturers ready to answer your questions
- empowerment of people: we will give you all the tools you need to build your career path thanks to the career coach service
- honesty and transparency: you will know our costs from the start without any further surprises
- sharing: you can stay in touch with us via our blog and social channels.

What we do
We design online courses, divided into various modules, with a theoretical part and a practical part with many exercises.
Our courses are for recent graduates, young professionals, but also for companies that want to focus on tailor-made training.
They are taught by lecturers with experience not only in training but also in the field.
