1What it is
A professional credential for those who conduct, coordinate and monitor clinical trials, measuring their knowledge of Good Clinical Practice, the regulations and the ethics of research in people. It is the step after a GCP course for someone whose work is now clinical research rather than an occasional task.
2Who it suits
Clinical study coordinators and monitors, and staff of hospital research centres and contract research organisations.
3What it requires
Current work in clinical research under Good Clinical Practice, with experience counted in years or an equivalent education in the field.
4How it is earned
An application that is reviewed, then an exam at a centre or online with a proctor. The candidate handbook published on the society's website is the reference for the requirements.
When a centre or body posts a course that prepares for it, we send you one email about it.
