Drug safety is a non-negotiable pillar of pharmaceutical development — and pharmacovigilance experts are in high demand globally. This online Advanced PG Diploma (up to 24 months, 60 ECTS) from JLI Switzerland covers adverse event reporting, signal detection, risk management plans, and global PV regulations. Graduates pursue careers in drug safety, PV specialists, and regulatory compliance across pharma and CROs.
The curriculum covers the entire pharmacovigilance lifecycle — individual case safety report (ICSR) processing, aggregate report preparation (PSURs, PBRERs), benefit-risk assessment, signal detection and evaluation, and the development of risk management strategies including RMPs and REMs. Students develop a thorough understanding of global PV regulatory requirements, including EudraVigilance, the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS), and the WHO VigiBase, as well as GVP guidelines and ICH E2 series documents. The clinical research component provides grounding in GCP, trial design, and data management — ensuring graduates can work across both the clinical and safety functions of pharmaceutical organisations. Self-paced and fully online, this diploma is ideal for pharmacists, physicians, nurses, and clinical research professionals seeking to specialise in the high-growth pharmacovigilance field.
Experience a modern, flexible approach to higher education designed for working professionals that combines academic rigor with the convenience of 100% online delivery.
