What happened, and what is missing?
The Decision Under Examination · Briefing series
When the inspector asks why, does your reasoning hold?
See what the record behind a batch release, a CAPA closure and an approved decision does and does not show.
A completed checklist shows that a review occurred. It does not show that the decision was justified. Work three realistic cases to see what a careful reviewer asks next.

The CAPA Was Closed. Was It Effective?
The actions are complete. Does the evidence support closure? Examine a realistic CAPA decision and see what the evidence does and does not show.
Three connected sessions. One focused learning path.
Designed to be taken in order.
Each session works a different decision through the same four questions, Evidence, Judgment, Risk and Authorization: batch release, CAPA effectiveness, and whether the next reviewer can reconstruct the decision. Start with Session 1 and follow the sequence.

Which criterion connects the facts to the conclusion, and why this conclusion?

Who decided, what, and under what conditions?
