FACT hosted a large number of cellular therapy experts for inspector training at the Tandem Meetings of ASTCT and CIBMTR on February 3, 2026. We are thrilled and grateful to the 15 inspector trainees who have volunteered to join the prestigious FACT inspectorate.

FACT inspector training courses provide trainees with practical, hands-on sessions facilitated by experienced FACT inspectors. The trainees learn about technology tools, preparation essentials, common citations, the inspection processes, and what to expect after the inspection.

This training workshop was made possible with the assistance of 7 volunteer inspector training facilitators who worked directly with small groups of trainees during the hands-on activities.

Thank you to the new inspector trainees and the training facilitators for preparing the FACT inspectorate for continuing our tradition of peer-based, collegial inspections!
