Welcome to Advarra University

The privacy of a research participant must be protected at all times. As well as being one of the standard ethical requirements for clinical research, protecting participant privacy is also covered under a US law known as the HIPAA Privacy Rule, or simply HIPAA. Those who work in clinical research may be subject to HIPPA regulations. This course covers the principles and standards found in HIPAA as they pertain to handling records, accessing information, and disclosures and reporting. Attendance at this program has been approved for 0.50 contact hours of research specific continuing education on applications for Maintenance of ACRP’s CCRC®, CCRA®, CPI®, or ACRP-CP® certification designations. The Society of Clinical Research Associates (SOCRA - www.SOCRA.org) accepts documentation of candidate participation in continuing education programs for recertification if the program is applicable to clinical research regulations, operations or management, or to the candidate’s clinical research therapeutic area. This program offers 0.50 hours of CE credit. Read more

The principles of Good Clinical Practice (GCP) help assure the safety, integrity, and quality of clinical trials by addressing elements related to the design, conduct, and reporting of clinical trials. GCP training describes the responsibilities of investigators, sponsors, monitors, and IRBs in the conduct of clinical trials.  GCP training aims to ensure that: the rights, safety, and well-being of human subjects are protected clinical trials are conducted in accordance with approved plans with rigor and integrity data derived from clinical trials are reliable View each video to learn more about different topics in GCP.  To pass this course, you must complete the assessment with a score of 80% or greater.  Attendance at this program has been approved for 0.50 contact hours of research specific continuing education on applications for Maintenance of ACRP’s CCRC®, CCRA®, CPI®, or ACRP-CP® certification designations.

The goal of the research is to identify treatments or interventions that can be used on people across age, ethnicity, gender, and lifestyles. If the clinical trial does not represent the population that will ultimately benefit from the study findings, then we won’t have an accurate picture of the efficacy and safety of these treatments in the real world.  However, it is a known issue that many clinical trial populations do not represent the population that will ultimately benefit from the study treatments or interventions. This course will cover the ethical considerations of diversity and inclusion in clinical trials, identify barriers to diversity in research, share practical examples of what diversity in trials could look like and how to increase diverse participation, as well as how to track the effectiveness of your D&I initiatives.
