  1. Imani Rout

    Access to latest version of Oracle Argus Safety 8.2.3.1 received as part of this program. I was sold at this because from my friend i heard hands on experience on the latest version with latest regulations is a must and that what interviewers looked for. The recorded sessions help me navigate the software. Very useful program for me as i explore a career in drug safety!

  2. Chantria

    Good but detailed program. Don’t expect to just browse through it. Join this if you are committed to mastering pharmacovigilance.

  3. Dr. Zeba Onkaran

    Explored programs across several providers and narrowed down on this one specifically because it offers access to the Argus software which is required by the industry. Was surprised by the depth of content. The content comprehensively covers all aspects of PV along with practical training on Argus Safety. Would highly recommend this course.

  4. Haruko

    This is by far the most comprehensive course in pharmacovigilance that i have explored. Argus Safety which is the software used to collect and manage drug safety data is included in this course which makes is super useful.

  5. Nikhil Bhatia

    Excellent content from the Instructor. Easy to understand and Argus Safety software access made the course engaging with practical examples.

  6. Simi

    Detailed program. Covered all aspects of drug safety including Oracle Argus.

  7. Malvika (verified owner)

    This is my first time, trusting on a elearning platform. Diploma in Pharmacovigilance covers all you need to know about PV as a beginner and gave me hands on experience over Argus safety software. More over, the discussion forum is the most helpful tool. You can anytime post your query and they will revert back within a day or 2. Their customer care team, is very helpful. Have no complains. Will take more courses from them!

  8. Anisha Patel

    Detailed program with access to Argus Safety. Helped me immensely while preparing for an Interview for a Drug safety position. I am happy I found this program.

  11. Nawang Tsering

    This was the first time i have enrolled for an eLearning program. The content is really clear and very comprehensive at the same time. The quizzes make learning more engaging and i did not face any problem accessing the Argus Safety software. I am learning from the modules and have found this course really useful so far. By working practically on cases in Argus safety i am getting confident in managing cases. Recommend it!

  12. Nicole Longo (verified owner)

    As a board-certified physician, I have found this course extremely useful and relevant not only to clinical practice, but to those clinicians looking to expand their opportunities into the pharmaceutical and non-clinical spectrums. Some of the course information covered would have been appropriate to have presented within medical school training and is absolutely applicable to current clinical practice. I am pleased to say that I have learned valuable, clinically relevant information that I can use today, even without a transition to the pharmaceutical environment. Highly recommend this course and found the course trainer(s) extremely helpful in all questions. Only suggestion would be for the course material video slide presentations to have the option to slow down the audio; my function (if available) did not work and listening to lectures with accents not natural to my own did present somewhat challenging, requiring repeated listening to grasp the material.
    Thank you!!

  13. Tara Mehndiratta

    Enrolment was instant and i didn’t have to follow up with anybody via email. Faculty was responsive and patient in addressing my queries. Access to actual Argus Safety software was provide, not some knock-off application for pharmacovigilance. Impressed!

  14. Ankit Fadia

    Look no further. Audio tutorials help simplify the concepts. They have an app through which you can download and access the content offline and also take your quizzes while travelling. Helped me learn while on the job. No regrets.
