Why this training is crucial for your organisation :
Forming quality partnerships between pharmaceuticals and CROs is essential to executing clinical trials in an efficient manner. There must be a commitment from both the sponsor company and the CRO to form a successful partnership and build value while ensuring regulatory compliance is met. The parties can build mutual synergies through establishing agreements on experience levels of study team staff, development and tracking of focussed KPIs, building trust with operational staff, project and benefit tracking through creating milestones, and setting clear roles and responsibilities.
We have created a programme that will introduce you to the right skills, tools, techniques and the methodologies essential to the successful planning and controlling of projects. The programme focuses on development of your own skills around people management and interpersonal skills required to deliver performance on projects at all levels. The course is driven by practical experience, industry feedback and based to fulfil participant’s learning needs, giving you the opportunity to immediately apply your new understandings and skills to your own projects.
