Upcoming RAQA Open House Events

Congratulations to our 60+ graduates from three of our degree programs this past year (RAQA, Global Clinical & Pharmacovigilance Regulations, and Pharmaceutical Regulatory Sciences). We held our annual Diploma Ceremony on Sunday, June 9, celebrating their accomplishments and success. Our FDA keynote speaker was Anne Johnson, Senior Science Advisor in the ORA Office of the Associate Commissioner of Regulatory Affairs (OACRA), who addressed the issue of "Change" in her inspirational and outstanding talk. We'll be posting all of the photographs of the event on the RAQA website soon, but thanks to Jeremy Banaszewski, we are including a photo taken with his cell phone as a first peek of the ceremony.

Summer is a great time to start, accelerate, or complete a graduate program in RAQA. This summer our RAQA graduate program is offering two dozen courses on a range of topics, including Patient Focused Regulatory Policy, Food Labeling & Reg Affairs, Global CMCs, Regulatory eSubmissions, APIs, Sterile Products, High Purity Water, GLPs, Medical Devices...and more! You can pursue required courses for the MS in RAQA or one of our 15 certificates -- or enroll in a course that will enhance your knowledge of an industry specialty.

Please consider donating to our scholarship fund. We're proud that the FDA Alumni Association (FDAAA) gave an endowment to the School of Pharmacy in 2006 to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the FDA. That endowment led to the creation of our first scholarship fund exclusively for RAQA students, who pay out-of-pocket for their graduate education. We're excited that the FDAAA has graciously announced that they will match up to $5,000 in additional funds for our scholarship, if Temple's RAQA community can raise $5,000 in donations. Please help us reach that goal by making a donation in any amount to the James S. Benson FDAAA/FDA Centennial Scholarship on this link: https://lnkd.in/eyp9nAJG We thank you for any size donation, since every dollar will count towards our goal that continues to help many RAQA students, who pay out-of-pocket for their graduate education. We appreciate your generosity and help.
