About This Course
Product Compliance System - Basic ID534 BACKGROUND AND TOPICS The safety of products and their compliance with legal as well as voluntarily assumed obligations are the primary goals of all companies in the automotive industry. However, achieving these goals is becoming increasingly challenging – diversified markets, product variations, and complex supply chains make the requirements unclear. The risk involved is enormous: if product safety and compliance are not ensured, it can threaten the existence of the entire company. Each market player should, therefore, address these challenges not only in terms of individual products but systematically at the organizational level – with a Product Compliance System. Such a system includes elements for identifying, monitoring, controlling, and minimizing product compliance-related risks at the company level. This allows potential dangers to be identified and prevented early on. In this training, you will learn about the seven building blocks of a Product Compliance System. Practical examples will help you understand how to apply these at your company. TARGET AUDIENCE The training is aimed at executives and employees from medium-sized and small companies in the automotive industry who are building, implementing, or maintaining a Product Compliance System or intend to do so in the future. It is also relevant for employees within the company dealing with product/technology-related compliance topics along the product lifecycle, as well as PSCRs in relevant functions. OBJECTIVES By the end of this training, you will: - Know the basics of a Product Compliance System from a governance perspective - Know the scope of a Product Compliance System, its elements, and the relevant key questions. - Be able to develop or operate a company-specific Product Compliance concept based on this knowledge. - Be capable of becoming a multiplicator for this topic within your company. CONCEPT AND METHODS A combination of alternating practice-oriented theoretical input, examples and exercises, as well as ad-hoc trainer feedback, results in a nuanced use case understanding of a Product Compliance System. CERTIFICATE OF QUALIFICATION After passing the test, the participants will receive a certificate of qualification.
