The Association of Clinical Research Professionals (ACRP) today released a foundational training course to support compliance with new Good Clinical Practice (GCP) guidelines governing clinical research operations and execution globally.
ACRP’s new course, Good Clinical Practice (GCP) ICH E6(R3), is a trusted resource to ensure clinical research professionals are fully competent and confident in their knowledge of recently announced changes to GCP principles and guidelines outlined by the International Council on Harmonization (ICH).
This on-demand training ushers in a new era of leading-edge e-learning from ACRP that enhances knowledge gain through micro-learning, interactive-real-world applications, and pertinent knowledge checks. ACRP’s Good Clinical Practice (GCP) ICH E6(R3) course is available now to individuals and organizations.
“The clinical research enterprise relies on ACRP to set and raise the standard of excellence in clinical research training,” says Marian Valia, ACRP Chief Learning Officer.
“Our first goal in developing this course was to have learners emerge from this training with a deep understanding of the new ICH E6(R3) guidance and its application in clinical trials. Second, to make learning more effective and efficient through modern e-learning design. By achieving these goals, ACRP is confident clinical research professionals around the world will be well-equipped to navigate the transition from E6(R2) to E6(R3) and ensure compliance with this global standard for clinical trial conduct.”
