EduNeering ComplianceWire Courses
Through a Cooperative Research and Development
Agreement (CRADA) with EduNeering, Inc. of Princeton, NJ, ORA U is offering many technical
competency courses online. The objective of the CRADA is to favorably impact public health
by increasing the skill level and productivity of FDA inspectors and by improving
compliance with government regulations in FDA-regulated industries.
See the online ComplianceWire course catalog for a
complete list of all available courses.
Pre-existing EduNeering courses
As part of the CRADA, FDA has reviewed existing Eduneering online technical and compliance
courses for adherence to FDA policy. FDA personnel will have access to the entire library
of over 100 existing courses. These include such titles as Introduction to GMPs,
Principles of Good Documentation, and Principles of Auditing.
All courses listed with a category of
"General" are EduNeering courses provided for FDA use under the terms of the
CRADA. These courses were developed by EduNeering to train personnel in regulated
industries. Although we expect that the vast majority of information in these courses is
accurate, they have not been reviewed by FDA personnel for consistency with our
regulations and policies. Language used in these courses reflects the target audience --
regulated industry.
FDA students are urged to take "General"
category courses as they keep in mind the industry audience for whom they were developed.
If you find an inconsistency in the content of these courses, please e-mail your concern
to ORA U at orau@ora.fda.gov. Please be sure to
include the course title and topic area in which the problem appears. Be as detailed as
possible in your comment.
Thank you in advance for your help!
FDA-Sponsored Courses
FDA and EduNeering will be developing online versions of existing FDA courses. The first
phase of this initiative will include Food and Drug Law, Basics of HACCP, Food
Microbiological Control, Basics of Investigations, and numerous other titles.

A virtual "Tour of the FDA" has been
developed to give new employees an overview of every FDA center. Available to the public
as well as FDA employees, this course provides a better understanding of the FDA and its
structure. It covers all units within FDA and explains how each works. The course also
describes FDA history, its impact on society, and its mission. Click here to take a
