What is the validity period of my GCP certificate?

What is the validity period of my GCP certificate?

There is no agreed validity period for a GCP certificate. There are agreements within the branches and organisations, but there is no national or worldwide agreement made. The ICH GCP guideline says that you always have to be up to date with the currently applicable laws and legislations. This means as soon as there is an update on a local law or ICH GCP, you would have to renew your GCP training.

This is the reason you have access to your myGCP course for 1 year: In case of new laws and legislations, we update the course and inform you about the updates. As soon as you have completed the course updates, you will receive a new GCP certificate.

Exception: if you are listed in the BROK register or GCP-WMO register (via EMWO examination), the validity is specified in the register.


  1. For the GCP-WMO register, please contact EMWO.
  2. If you have obtained your certificate, you can find your BROK registration.
  3. If that does not work, try the old BROK registration.
