I am very happy that I did the Comply Guru's ISO 13485 + FDA QSR Foundation Training course. It is extremely well designed. The pace is perfect. It gives a clear understanding of ISO 13485, the in-between-the lines meaning of many requirements and then takes you to QSR. There is also a comparison between the standard and the regulation, which is helpful. The content keeps you engaged. Knowledge checks help you gauge how much you have understood. The examples, resources are all up to the mark. An excellent course!! Thank you Comply Guru
