Where this module fits

This is the entry point to the pathway, designed to establish a shared understanding of RBQM across functions.  If you are new to RBQM or preparing a team for a rollout, this module provides the baseline needed before moving into applied implementation.

What you will be able to do

  • Understand the practical purpose of RBQM and QbD
  • Recognize CtQ, KRI, and QTL in context
  • Understand how oversight shifts from retrospective checks to ongoing review
  • Contribute more effectively to RBQM-related discussions and decisions

Outcomes for Individuals and Teams

For Individual Learners

  • Build confidence in risk-based decision-making
  • Connect regulatory expectations to daily work
  • Progress from foundational to applied RBQM skills

For Enterprise Teams

  • Establish a shared RBQM language across functions
  • Reduce variability in interpretation and execution
  • Support structured rollout of RBQM processes
  • Strengthen inspection readiness through consistent rationale

Who this is for

  • Clinical Operations
  • QA / GxP / Compliance
  • Data & Central Monitoring
  • Medical Monitoring
  • Study / Program Leadership

Typical use cases in practice

This module is commonly used when organizations want to establish a shared understanding of RBQM principles before operational rollout or process transformation activities begin.

It helps cross-functional teams understand how concepts such as Quality by Design (QbD), Critical-to-Quality factors (CtQ), Key Risk Indicators (KRIs), and Quality Tolerance Limits (QTLs) connect to daily clinical trial activities and oversight responsibilities.

The course is frequently used as onboarding for new team members, as preparation before Green Belt implementation training, or when different functions require a more aligned interpretation of RBQM expectations under ICH E6(R3).

Sponsor and CRO teams also use this module to create a consistent RBQM language across departments before introducing centralized monitoring workflows, risk review processes, or study-level governance activities.
