Meet @Janmeet Anant a Senior Regulatory Consultant at Millipore Sigma in Burlington, Massachusetts who earned his RAC last year. He's our #RACSpotlight for February.
❓What motivated you to pursue the RAC certification?
"I had taken an interest in learning more and started studying for my RAC exam. I failed the first time but learned a lot and was able to pass easily the second time. I initially pursued the RAC certification for drugs to get an overall understanding of regulatory strategy and best approaches, not only for the US, but also for Europe, the World Health Organization (WHO) and the International Council for Harmonisation of Technical Requirements for Pharmaceuticals for Human Use (ICH)."
📝How did you prepare for the RAC exam?
"I prepared for the RAC on my own, reading and studying from the different regulatory sources. It was likely not the best way, since it took a lot of effort. Practice questions helped. I would recommend study groups and taking part in RAC prep workshops offered by RAPS."
🗣️What advice would you give to someone looking to start a career in regulatory?
"Understand a broad perspective of different areas, such as quality, technical and business aspects of your company. Avoid working in a silo. Collaborate with other divisions and external partners."
