"The STAR Center is a unique training facility where pharmacy professionals can receive practical, hands-on training from industry experts. Our programs focus on cleanroom education and facility design and provide practical information that participants can incorporate immediately into their own pharmacy operations to ensure compliance with USP < 797 > guidelines," notes Phillip Wettestad, Baxa Pharmacy Operations Specialist.
