The Association of Clinical Research Professionals (ACRP) has been awarded a two-year conference grant from the National Institutes of Health (NIH), through the National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences (NCATS), to support a strategic initiative aimed at strengthening and growing the U.S. clinical research professional workforce.

The Association of Clinical Research Professionals (ACRP) today announces UpTrials as the newest member of ACRP’s Partners Advancing the Clinical Research Workforce™, a multi-stakeholder collaborative of clinical research industry leaders who are committed to building a diverse, research-ready clinical research workforce. 

ACRP releases a new foundational training program to support clinical research professionals around the globe to be well-equipped to navigate the transition from ICH E6(R2) to E6(R3) and ensure compliance with this global standard for clinical trial conduct.

This six-day, 355-mile cycling journey from Pittsburgh, Pa., to Washington, D.C., raises funds for the ACRP Access for Students to Clinical Research Training (ASCRT) Scholarship Program for early-career and graduate-level students pursuing an education in clinical research. It also supports educational grants so researchers can benefit from gold-standard education and professional networking at the ACRP Annual Conference.

The Association of Clinical Research Professionals (ACRP) releases its initial findings from the first-ever workforce survey on the state of the clinical research enterprise. More than 735 clinical research professionals cited improved data quality, a growing role for technology providers, and the fulfilling nature of this career, while highlighting continued inefficiencies.
