My experience has been it takes about 6-12 months for a CRC to be competent enough to be independently doing Oncology Phase 2+ Industry trials. If they have a life science degree and medical/clinical experience, the training is around 6-9 months. If they only have one or the other, it seems to be closer to 12 months. *Note: At our site the CRC wears all the hats! (coordinator, data, regulatory, specimen processing, sponsor billing and subject billing liaison)
In your experience, is this a reasonable timeline? What are your experiences/expectations? If you have a similar CRC set up and you have a reduced training timeline, with high quality output, would you be willing to share your training plan?
Thanks in advance!
