Description
Several groups have developed documents of core competencies required of those involved in conduct of clinical research. This workshop will discuss these efforts and provide participants an opportunity to validate competencies from the stakeholder perspective. **Due to workshop format, seating will be limited and will be available on a first come, first served basis. The Pennsylvania Convention Center has stringent regulations on maximum room capacities, and they are strictly enforced. Once all seats are occupied, DIA will be required to close the workshop, and no more participants will be admitted. Interested attendees are encouraged to arrive at workshops early in order to ensure seating. Please note, as a workshop with interactivity, this event will not be recorded.
Learning Objectives:
Identify the core competencies required to conduct ethical and high quality clinical trials
Recognize the need to integrate core competencies into the educational programs which produce clinical research personnel.
