These 39 professionals earned their RCC credentials in spring 2024
RAPS announced today the names of the 39 professionals who passed the second-ever Regulatory Compliance Certification (RCC) exams, which took place in spring 2024.
Each professional listed below has earned their RCC-MDR or RCC-IVDR designation. To pass their RCC exam, individuals must demonstrate specific knowledge correlated to the EU Medical Device Regulation (MDR) or the EU In Vitro Diagnostic Regulation (IVDR), respectively. Manufacturers around the world must comply with these regulations in relation to devices and IVDs placed on the market in the European Union.
The deadline to sign up for a summer 2024 RCC exam is 20 June. Learn more here.
The RCC is the newest credential for regulatory professionals in the healthcare product sector. It is intended for Persons Responsible for Regulatory Compliance (PRRCs) and individuals employed in regulatory agencies, industry, consultancies and other settings involved with the regulation of healthcare products.
It shows employers, clients, and colleagues that a regulatory professional has the essential knowledge required for regulatory compliance in the healthcare products sector. It is important to note that these voluntary designations do not automatically qualify individuals to serve in the PRRC role, nor do they guarantee that an individual meets all the requirements necessary to practice as a qualified PRRC.
RAPS created the RCC credentials with input and contributions from regulatory professionals, including an expert task force of industry leaders who discussed early concepts and a group of subject-matter experts who helped RAPS build the exams.
“Congratulations to our second ever group of RCC credential holders for earning these new certifications,” said RAPS Senior Director, Credentialing & Professional Development Jennifer Naughton. “RCC credential holders are poised to help companies around the world navigate these EU regulations, which have global impact.”
RAPS is now accepting applications for the 2024 RCC exams. Learn more about the RCC exam schedules, application instructions, and more.
