Course description
Medical Device Regulations in the MENA Region
As healthcare spending continues to rise in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA), this region is becoming a key growth target for medical device manufacturers. One of the main challenges companies face in the region is navigating the non-harmonised regulatory landscape which contains different systems, requirements and procedures. Having a solid regulatory strategy in the region will require an in depth knowledge of the regulations and can open up a growing market.
This 7 module, 4-week online course will provide you with a complete overview of the regulatory landscape in the region before focusing in on specific countries such as those in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), Egypt, Iran, Lebanon and Jordan. For each country you will examine company registration, product registration, labelling, fees and contact information.
