Action Site, virtual monitoring

Comprehensive training aimed at developing the operational skills of junior and senior Clinical Research Associates (CRAs). Throughout their training course, CRAs are put into work situations recreated in a virtual environment.

Programme 1

On-site monitoring of a single source file

Simple therapeutic trial, short patient follow-up, limited study procedures, simple medical history, minimal adverse events and few concomitant treatments.

Programme 2

On-site monitoring of a complex source file

Complex therapeutic trial with amendment, long patient follow-up, multiple study procedures, complex medical history, numerous adverse events and concomitant treatments, fraud.

Programme 3

Continuous site monitoring

Remote verification of the conduct of biomedical research without access to the source file and management of the investigative site between site visits.

Action Site one training for professionals

Training centre for clinical research professionals

Pharmaceutical laboratories, biotechnology companies, CROs (biomedical research service companies) and self-employed workers.

1

Virtual monitoring

Software that puts you in a professional situation, virtually reconstituting a monitoring exercise, discriminating against discrepancies, justifying them in relation to legislation and drawing up an appropriate action plan.

2

Adaptive training

Control of virtual monitoring observations and assignment of targeted video training based on undetected or incorrectly calibrated discrepancies.

3

Validation of prior learning

The CRA's progress is validated by a new, virtually recreated work situation.

Action Site how does it work?

A training offer aimed at developing skills

Monitoring is a critical, high-risk stage for sponsors. Theoretical training in the regulations underpinning clinical research must be supplemented in the face of the many problems encountered in professional situations. Virtual monitoring and Action Site adaptive training aim to develop the technical skills of each CRA individually and bring them up to the required level of excellence.

Quality control and integrity
clinical research data

Errors, falsifications or non-compliance with regulations can invalidate a therapeutic trial in support of a marketing authorisation application.

Initial and continuing training

Initial training: theoretical instruction ;
Ongoing training: learning professional skills on the investigator site through monitoring supervised or tutored by a second resource, increasing technical difficulties.

Virtual monitoring

Comprehensive in-service training covering all issues in the field;
Solo training within the company ;
Training without calendar constraints;
Training without having to travel to the investigator's site and the need to provide a double workspace.

Access to juniors

The Action Site training programme is open to qualified CRAs who hold a CRA diploma or professional qualification, with no minimum field experience.
