What this film shows
Near the end of the day a QC analyst finishes a weighing. The logbook is across the lab and a yellow sticky note is at her hand. A QA specialist closes a thick binder beside a pile of signed sheets. At the lockers she watches a lesson on her phone, with a real decision in it. The next time, she brings the logbook to the bench and leaves the note untouched.

What this film shows
A data-integrity SOP and one sentence become a plan of three lessons, which QA approves before anything is made. The crew writes and reviews, a filmed lesson appears, then a bench decision and an AI tutor that cites the scene. The course is published after QA approval, exported, and tracked by team, shown with sample data.

What this film shows
An AI presenter speaks from a plant corridor, a QC laboratory and a document control room about the gap between signing an SOP and understanding it, with the FY2024 count of 184 citations on screen, a lesson frame, and what you keep: SCORM and cmi5, MP4, scores and unchanged published versions.
The industry today
Signed by everyone. Understood by whom?
A pharmaceutical plant runs on procedures. Every SOP revision starts a clock: the effective date arrives, and analysts, operators and packers must be trained before they touch the work. In practice that often means a read-and-sign in the LMS, a queue of signatures on Friday and a training matrix that turns green. QA can show who signed. It is much harder to show who understood, and EU GMP expects the effectiveness of training to be assessed.
The same gap runs from the bench to the field. Data integrity fails quietly, on a sticky note or a result written up after lunch. ICH E6(R3) asks clinical teams to rethink how they manage quality. Reps and medical science liaisons must stay on label while a physician presses for more, and pharmacovigilance depends on anyone recognising an adverse event and passing it on in time. In the Gulf, SFDA and Emirates Drug Establishment expectations sit on top, and Arabic-speaking teams need the same clarity as the English SOP.

Where training breaks
What makes this hard, and what changes
The problem
A read-and-sign proves a signature, not understanding.
With Coursento
Every lesson puts the SOP inside a scene and ends in a decision, and question analysis shows where a team is going wrong.
The problem
The effective date is fixed, and rebuilding training for every revision is a project.
With Coursento
Start from the revised SOP. Change one scene and keep the rest. Published versions never change, and an edit starts a new version.
The problem
Nothing can reach the floor before QA has seen it.
With Coursento
QA approves the plan before any lesson is written, each lesson is checked against your sources, and nothing is published until QA says yes.
The problem
Operators on shift can't leave the line for a classroom.
With Coursento
Short lessons on a phone before a shift, or offline in the app, in English or Arabic, with completions recorded in Coursento or your LMS.
How it works
From your document to a course
Turn SOPs and other controlled documents into filmed, scenario-based courses in English and Arabic. QA approves before anything is published, and completions go to your validated LMS through SCORM or cmi5.
What you bring
- SOPs and work instructions
- Quality manual and GMP guidance
- Deviation and CAPA summaries
- Approved labelling and medical materials
- Study protocols and GCP guidance
Controlled documents stay yours, in your own document system. QA approves before anything is published, and your validated LMS stays the training record. Keep patient and batch records out of your sources.

Questions
Can QA approve everything before staff see it?
Yes. QA approves the plan and its cost before any lesson is written, and nothing is published until you say so. Published versions never change; an edit starts a new version.
Is Coursento a validated system?
No. Coursento is not a validated GxP system and makes no claim about electronic records or signatures. Controlled documents stay yours, and your validated LMS stays the system of record.
Will it work with our validated LMS?
Courses export as SCORM or cmi5, and as MP4. Validation against real LMSs is in progress, so test a package in yours before you commit. SCORM or cmi5 packages in your LMS need no Coursento account.
