President's Letter
 Welcome to the Pharmaceutical Education and Research Institute, Inc. (PERI)!
Each year it seems the challenges are mounting for each of us. On every front we face the stress of uncertainty on the job, in the economy, in the World. A common prescription for uncertainty is readiness and preparedness – in other words, training. Training increases our sense of security because we are better prepared for the challenges ahead, scientific, business, or otherwise.
At PERI we have been dedicated to training pharmaceutical professionals for over 14 years. More than 33,000 people have attended our courses, seminars, distance education programs, and our ever-growing in-house programs.
What this means to you is experience. You can be confident in the fact that you will receive in-depth training and take courses that are relevant to your job; training that you can put to work the day you return. You can be secure in the fact that you~{!/~}re selecting a leader.
PERI is different from other pharmaceutical training organizations in three key areas:
PERI~{!/~}s training provides the core knowledge you need to perform your job effectively, profitably, and within regulatory requirements At PERI, we focus on providing you and your team with the basic tools you need to evaluate evolving situations and to make smart decisions. It~{!/~}s not just about having the right answer to a single question, it~{!/~}s about being able to answer that question posed several different ways, under different circumstances, and with differing variables. The only way you can do that is with core knowledge and context.
At PERI, we~{!/~}re interested in talking about the topic, not the presenter. That~{!/~}s why our courses go through an extensive and exhaustive planning process thanks to our expert Course Directors and Course Managers. PERI is dedicated to the individual Our thousands of course evaluations over the years consistently mention PERI~{!/~}s attention to the individual and his or her career goals as a major factor in the success of both the course and the individual experience.
PERI is not-for-profit What more needs to be said. We~{!/~}re objective, impartial, and primarily concerned with providing quality training. Our unique status allows us to focus on you and your needs.
Over the years, we have developed an extremely loyal base of experienced friends and supporters to whom we are very grateful. More than one-third of our entire student roster has taken multiple courses with us. All our instructors have held positions within the industry and/or FDA. And over 65% of our courses include a speaker from the FDA or other government agencies. We at PERI offer our thanks to all our loyal supporters who are so vital to our continuing success.
Remember, at PERI we offer something different than everyone else; the very basic tools you need to be successful in your job. We hope to see you at a course in the coming year. Thanks and good luck.
Sincerely,
Judith K. Jones, MD, PhD
