ACRP Hiring Guidelines for Entry Level Clinical Research Coordinators™

The ACRP Hiring Guidelines for Entry Level Clinical Research Coordinators™ (CRCs) is the industry’s first comprehensive set of competency-based guidelines for hiring entry-level CRCs.

This document provides best practices from industry experts to assist with:

  • Reducing staff turnover by allowing clinical research sites to hire CRCs who will be more satisfied and successful in their role;
  • Guiding human resources departments and hiring managers in the CRC candidate selection and assessment process; and
  • Standardizing and professionalizing the career of CRCs.

The objectives of these guidelines are to help those who hire entry level CRCs better hone and prioritize their hiring process to focus on the competencies that are most predictive of success.
