Cultivation operates under GACP (Good Agricultural and Collection Practice), not EU GMP. However, if you are also involved in primary processing, drying, milling or any step beyond the raw harvest, you may be operating within the GMP scope. The GACP-to-GMP handover point must be formally defined — and getting it wrong creates compliance risk in both directions.

CCGP is the core GMP compliance pathway covering EU GMP fundamentals, documentation and deviation management. It is the prerequisite for all other ECI certifications. CCVP is the specialist pathway for qualification and validation professionals — covering IQ/OQ/PQ, facility qualification, utility qualification, analytical instrument qualification and computer system validation. Different roles, different depths.

Yes. The CCGP is a prerequisite for all other ECI certification pathways. This ensures every specialist pathway is grounded in GMP fundamentals. Learners may enrol in CCGP and a specialist pathway concurrently.

CCGP is three modules, typically four to six weeks part-time. CCPS is five modules, typically eight to twelve weeks. CCVP is seven modules, typically twelve to sixteen weeks. All are self-paced — you progress at your own speed. The written assessment and documentation submission are completed after all modules are done.

ECI certifications are professional credentials, not regulatory licences. They demonstrate the holder has completed a rigorous, panel-assessed curriculum developed by practitioners with direct pharmaceutical manufacturing and regulatory experience. They are designed to be recognised by employers, operators and industry bodies.
