WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY ABOUT OUR TRAINING

“The mentoring sessions I had with Alex gave me the additional help and assistance I needed in preparation for my QP viva. The sessions were challenging but the feedback I received was honest, highly informative and gave me confidence in myself. Alex’s experience and focus on my personal development needs with regards to viva readiness was invaluable. I would recommend any trainee QP to use Alex’s mentoring sessions; they provide a forum not only for practical learning experience but for developing confidence and self-belief.”

“Alex supported me throughout QP training, and helped me prepare for a successful viva. A lovely, lovely lady with so much experience and knowledge. Thank you for sharing it with me Alex! 100% recommended to anyone who needs the help of an outstanding Quality professional.”

— TANYA MANSFIELD, ASPAR PHARMACEUTICALS LTD
"Alex has been helping me on my journey to becoming a QP. Alex is extremely knowledgeable, she has a valuable calming influence and she brought the necessary structure to help me work through some of the tricky scenarios that will be tested at viva. Highly recommended. Thank you Alex!"

— PAUL MCLAUGHLIN, IPSEN PHARMACEUTICALS
“I was introduced to Alex early on in my QP training journey. Alex guided me through the QP study guide via a mixture of telephone calls, face to face discussions and email correspondence. Her wealth of experience as a working QP and QP assessor provided a unique opportunity to prepare for my viva but also to prepare me for life as a QP. Alex was always there to offer professional and personal support when needed and this continues to this day. The monthly calls with Alex became an enjoyable experience and her ability to make introductions to other QP trainees was invaluable. My final test from Alex came from her mock viva. Alex’s feedback after the mock viva was as important as the mock viva itself. Once she said ‘you’re ready’ my confidence grew and my application form was submitted the very next day. I have been working as a QP for 6 years and would highly recommend Alex to anyone contemplating becoming a QP or for any consultancy services.”

— PETER MOLLISON, NHS
"Alex mentored me during QP viva preparation and helped me to build confidence, leading to successful viva outcome. I highly recommend Alex for Quality related services especially for Trainee QPs to get prepared for Viva. *** 5 STAR***"

— ARUN MAHAT, TEVA PHARMACEUTICALS
“Alex was fantastic to work with in the run up to my QP viva. Passing your QP viva is a very personal journey. Before my 1:1 mentoring sessions with Alex, I struggled with viva scenario questions. In particular how to get across my knowledge in a structured and organised manner in a format that the QP assessors wanted to hear it. Alex helped me use the knowledge I had gained through working life and more formal QP training courses to construct suitable answers for my viva. Learning more factual information or attending another training course would not have helped me pass. I knew I needed tailored 1:1 help to focus on my areas of weakness and turn them into strengths. After several mentoring sessions with Alex, I went into my viva feeling fully prepared and confident that I had the ability to pass. I would fully recommend mentoring sessions with Alex to all aspiring QPs. Alex’s tailored 1:1 input was the difference between pass and fail for me.”

— ROSS WALKER, TORBAY PHARMACEUTICALS
“Alex provided excellent insight into the skills and requirements needed to become a Qualified Person. The combination of her extensive experience, coupled with her previous knowledge gained from sponsoring other potential QP’s, is exactly the right mix to be an effective sponsor. I would recommend Alex to any trainee QP who wants not only to pass the viva but to those who want to pass and then be successful in this challenging role thereafter.”

— IAN BIRCH, CTS QA MANAGER, ROCHE PHARMACEUTICALS
“The knowledge, guidance and advice provided by Alex was excellent. Alex has first hand knowledge of the requirements needed for candidates to be successful QPs and provides a level of training to meet these requirements. I can highly recommend QPQuandry as a service provider.”

— ALEX HERN, SANOFI
“Alex provided excellent insight into the skills and requirements needed to become a Qualified Person during her lectures/workshops at the UCL SOP + NHS QP Collaborative Course. She has got an extensive experience working as a QP which goes hand in hand with her skills and ability to teach and communicate effectively with the trainee QP’s. I would recommend Alex to any budding QPs who need help to prepare for their VIVA.”
