Knowledge can fade over time. This means most of us must occasionally revisit and review important concepts. Refresher training helps keep key knowledge up to date.
That’s why we developed a 2 part workshop series that cover the fundamentals of clinical trials.
Clinical Trials 101 covers several key topics into two sessions to provide you with the fundamental knowledge to work in the sector.
This interactive workshop series aims to strengthen your understanding of clinical trials, including steps to plan, conduct and evaluate trials and meet regulatory requirements.
Who is this workshop for?
We have seen a diverse range of research professionals enrol into Clinical Trials 101:
- Clinical Trial Coordinators,
- Clinical Trial Managers,
- Early-career research/clinical trial staff,
- Research Managers,
- HREC Officers,
- Project Officers,
- those new to clinical trials.
Regardless of your experience, Clinical Trials 101 can provide value and help you take your career to new heights.
Parts 1 and 2 are stand-alone and priced separately. You can choose to do just one, or both as a complete set.
You can claim 3 CPD points from each workshop.
