TOPRA Membership Application Form – NOW Online

Over the past 25 years, ‘Regulatory Affairs’ has developed from a local administrative function to a pivotal strategic role in the global development of new therapies, products and devices. Regulatory Affairs has been established as a distinct profession in its own right, requiring an individual set of skills and high standards of integrity and commitment.

TOPRA is committed to continuing this process by promoting the profession of Regulatory Affairs and supporting its practitioners with education, training, information and networking opportunities not available elsewhere. TOPRA is the only global organisation, which is specifically aimed at Regulatory Affairs and dedicated to the professional development of its members.
