  14. Workshop on Operationalizing Pharmacovigilance Programme of India (PvPI) 24th – 25th November 2010 • Key Achievements • Vigiflow Training orientation for AMC Coordinators • Vigiflow ‘hands on’ training for all 12 AMCs completed • SOPs deliberated and finalized through collective brainstorming sessions by all • AMCs coordinators.
