Overview

Building on the substantial-equivalence and eSTAR foundation of the Introductory level, this Advanced course develops the acceptance, testing and agency-interaction disciplines that make a 510(k) succeed.

This 32-hour Professional Certificate Course covers the Refuse-To-Accept policy and checklist; performance-testing expectations (bench, biocompatibility, software, EMC); Q-Submission (Pre-Sub) interactions and strategy; and the Special and Abbreviated 510(k) variants and the Safety and Performance Based Pathway.

By the end, participants can evaluate a draft against the RTA checklist, draft a Q-Sub strategy memo and build a defensible 510(k) submission outline.
