Establish escalation routes for international research compliance that work outside normal hours.
Managing Regulatory Compliance for International Clinical Research
A working programme in international research compliance for managers who have to deliver with existing resources.
Course Overview
The data supporting international research compliance is usually present but rarely assembled into a decision. Accreditation bodies assess this strand of health and pharmaceutical services on documented evidence of consistent practice. The content is relevant to those who own the health and pharmaceutical services capability and to those who are held accountable for its results. Discussion is anchored to worked examples of international research compliance rather than to abstract argument. The course sets out a working method for the practice within health and pharmaceutical services that participants can apply the week they return. The difficulty is not agreeing that this strand of health and pharmaceutical services matters — it is deciding what to stop doing to make room for it. Participants gain a realistic view of what international research compliance costs and what it returns. Field experience suggests that the barrier to better this area of health and pharmaceutical services is rarely technical. Participants finish with a short, specific brief on this part of health and pharmaceutical services ready to put in front of a decision maker.
