Course detailsWhy should you take a course on Good Clinical Practice (GCP)?
|
Clinical Trials play a pivotal role in regards to bringing a new preventative or curative medication to appropriate patient groups. Patient protection is the focus of Good Clinical Practice (GCP). This guideline is based on the Declaration of Helsinki and underpins all clinical trials from concept to long after medication is marketed. In this dynamic medical environment where regulations and methods evolve and change, regular training is essential in order that we work to the highest standard.
There are SEVERAL BENEFITS to obtaining and maintaining certification. Major CROs and pharmaceutical/biotech companies now encourage CCRA or CCRC certification. Certification assists the public, healthcare professionals and the industry itself by identifying standards for professional practice and provides confidence that those testing our future medicines do so as trained and competent professionals.
Nucleus Network Education partners with
leading providers of clinical research training to provide customised Australian courses with a global perspective.
