Abstract

Ongoing training of clinical research staff is essential because clinical research is always changing. Team members need training in GCP, HIPAA, conflicts of interest, specific research protocols, and medical areas of concentration. Professional organizations provide national meetings and certification exams for research staff, including certifications for CCRC, CCRA, CPI, ACRP-CP, and CCCP certifications. Financial incentives, including payment for traveling to national meetings, reimbursement for certifying exams, and bonuses for obtaining additional training should be an integral part of every good clinical research team.
