DESCRIPTION
The in-company blended WMO GCP course for Clinical Research in the Netherlands is the optimal mix for companies: your team learns about GCP guidelines and Dutch (WMO) legislation online, at their own pace, and apply the GCP and WMO rules to company-specific situations in an instructor-led classroom session at your company.
The self-paced online course gives a practical understanding of the ICH GCP guidelines and the Medical Research Involving Human Subjects Act (WMO) in a logical order: from design to the closeout of clinical trials. After completion of the 7 modules of the online course, the attendees have the knowledge to have in-depth discussions at the classroom session.
The program of the classroom session is tailored to the needs of the attendees and allows maximum interaction. They are challenged to apply their GCP knowledge to solve company-specific case studies. They will exchange knowledge and experiences with their colleagues and have in-depth discussions with the experienced trainer to maximize their learning experience.
This course is ideal for teams working in the clinical research industry in the Netherlands or experienced staff looking for an extensive update on ICH GCP and WMO.
