Lets promote Regulatory Affairs - Part 1 (Teaching) Thanks for the idea of promoting RA to young generation. ARPA - Asia Regulatory Professionals Association did a career talk this week. Thanks Yee Shan Wong invited us. Temasek Polytechnic

What is Regulatory Affairs? Our Association (ARPA - Asia Regulatory Professionals Association ) teaching RA for more than 15 years in Pharmacy schools (for Drug RA) and Engineering schools (for Medical Device RA). Many students have not heard of Regulatory Affairs before. They don't know this is one of their career. LinkedIn community, any ideas to increase awareness of RA to younger generation? #regulatoryAffairs

My education dream come true on 1 April 2024 - teaching regulatory affairs to primary school students!! Thanks for the support of Nixon Chan in Big Bang Academy, Jennis Tan and Andy Li. We shared some interesting regulatory knowledge to some energetic primary school students today. They learnt what is medical device, simple classification, how to identify fake product and even invent their own medical devices. You can tell the products they are holding (head gear to protect body, surgical arm etc). Very pound of them. ARPA - Asia Regulatory Professionals Association
