Welcome to Advarra University

Medical interventions that are used to treat human illness undergo rigorous development processes in clinical trials before they have been approved for use. A wide variety of items are considered to be healthcare research, such as medical devices, diagnostic tools, behavioral activity, exercises, and nutrition plans. Principal Investigators play a key role in the success of conducting clinical research. This course covers the general phases of clinical trials (focusing on drugs, biologics, and vaccines), defining the difference between clinical research and clinical care, and the responsibilities of a Principal Investigator for ensuring safety and compliance in a clinical trial. 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

Human Subjects Protection (HSP) training is essential for investigators and research staff. HSP training describes how investigators, sponsors, and IRBs work together to protect the rights, safety, and well-being of subjects on clinical trials.  HSP training aims to ensure that: the rights, safety, and well-being of human subjects are protected privacy and confidentiality of human subjects in research are maintained View each video to learn more about different topics in HSP.  To pass this course, you must complete the assessment with a score of 80% or greater.  Attendance at this program has been approved for 1.00 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 1.00 hours of CE credit. Read more

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 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.
