Research Design - Learn The Basics

This course is designed to help participants, especially those with less experience, see how GCP principles inform every key decision in a study, from design to closure, with an emphasis on justice, equity, and applied ethics.

Upon completion of this course, participants are expected to:

• Understand the basic principles of GCP and its relevance to clinical research
• Apply participant-centred practices, adequate risk management, and quality in the design and execution of clinical trials
• Adapt GCP practices in diverse research environments and other study designs

The target audience of this course is wide and includes clinical researchers and members of research teams such as data managers, monitors and quality assurance personnel, as well as sponsors, ethics committee members and professionals in regulatory agencies involved in clinical research.

This course is suitable for people undertaking clinical and/or health services research. Many healthcare services provide access to internal GCP training, so check with your Manager or Research Unit, or access this free course.
