DUBLIN, June 30, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- The "Clinical Research Associate (CRA) Beginner (Online)" training has been added to
ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
If you are looking to enter the field of clinical research, this CPD-accredited 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.
