UK's NIHR Clinical Research Network's GCP Training Recognized by TransCelerate

Article

Training providers meeting the GCP criteria set out in the guidelines are added to a list of mutually recognized providers. The Clinical Research Network has recently been added to this list. Now, when a study is placed at a site in the NHS, if the Principal Investigator and the research team have completed GCP training provided by the Clinical Research Network, they will not be required to undertake further company-specific GCP training. This will help to streamline study set-up and allow research teams to focus on other important set-up activities such as pre-screening patients.
