If you are looking to enter the field of clinical research, this CPD-accredited 3-day course is for you. It will provide you with a comprehensive insight into an entry-level Clinical Research Associate (CRA) role.

This fundamental "how-to" and "why" course, focuses on current practice. You will learn about the CRA's role and responsibilities in the context of the regulations and rules that govern clinical trials. You will look at a day in a CRA's life to gain insight into the profession. Alongside this, you will review mock-up sample protocols and study documents to reinforce your learning.

What will be covered in this course?

This module will look at:

  • ICH-GCP
  • The primary duties of a CRA
  • The specific responsibilities in accordance with ICH-GCP
  • SOP and regulations for before, during and after a clinical trial
  • Essential documents - Preparation, collation and QC

What prior knowledge is needed?

Most CRA positions require as a minimum a BSc in:
