TS-002163 — Researchers and professionals beginning their careers in pediatrics and/or rare disease clinical research sites may feel overwhelmed in the face of innovation, new territories and lifechanging research. A team of Certified Clinical Research Professionals at Nationwide Children’s Hospital created three additional modules for the Clinical Research Onboarding Program – The Survival Guide and an opportunity to access a Gene Therapy Immersion Program. Through this reference manual, the team hopes to share lessons and provide guidance on working in pediatrics clinical research for all learners.

TS-000747 — A how to guide for beginner stage clinical research professionals and a refresher manual for seasoned research professionals engaged in multi-site study management.

TS-000495 — Onboarding clinical research professionals can often be a daunting task. Boot camps and crash courses are expensive, site administrators have little time to develop homegrown programs and most rely on one-way learning platforms with little opportunity to ensure competence before study staff are expected to assume study management responsibilities. This may lead to challenges in study compliance and staff retention due to not feeling adequately trained. Our hope is that by offering what we have learned to others in a train the trainer concept, separated into 6 modules that it will enable sites to utilize this program to effectively onboard new staff across their organization.
