Abstract:
The NoBoCap training program for market operators has played a critical role in supporting the implementation of the European Union's Medical Device Regulation (MDR) and In Vitro Diagnostic Regulation (IVDR). This initiative seeks to equip market operators with the essential knowledge and skills required to navigate the rigorous compliance requirements of these regulations. The present study aimed to assess the program’s effectiveness by focusing on three core objectives: (1) evaluating participant needs, (2) analyzing the efficacy of marketing strategies, and (3) measuring course outcomes. A mixed-methods approach was employed, incorporating participant feedback, marketing campaign analytics, and needs assessment surveys. The findings demonstrated a significant improvement in participant understanding of regulatory requirements, supported by robust marketing strategies that effectively engaged the target audience. Notably, the study identified regional variations in training success rates, underscoring the importance of localized marketing efforts and customized training content. These insights highlight the critical need for ongoing professional development programs tailored to the evolving regulatory landscape. Implications of the findings suggest that future regulatory training initiatives should prioritize data-driven decision-making and iterative improvements in program design to maximize impact. This study reinforces the importance of targeted training strategies in enhancing regulatory compliance within the medical device and diagnostics sectors.
