TRAINING: Free Online Event--XML-based Pharmaceutical Labeling
Success Stories - April 13, 2005

(Co-presented by Innodata Isogen & The Rockley Group)

Pharmaceutical labeling content must not only meet the demands of the U.S.
Food and Drug Administration regulatory requirements, it must also meet
ever-changing global regulatory requirements. Standards like Structured
Product Labeling (SPL) and XML provide considerable benefits for
addressing global labeling issues. This informative, free one-hour webinar
will demonstrate how XML-based component level content can:

* address global labeling issues
* provide better control of content
* be reconfigured to meet multiple regulatory requirements
* significantly reduce localization costs

Date: Wednesday, April 13, 2005
Time: 12:00PM EDT, 9:00AM PDT, 17:00 GMT
Moderator: Dan Dube ? Director, Business Analysis, Innodata Isogen
Speaker: Ann Rockley ? President, The Rockley Group
