Training

It is the policy of both Queen Mary and Barts Health that all researchers conducting research at our sites must attend appropriate training. It is mandated that all researchers of MHRA-regulated trials must complete a GCP course and refresh it every two years. The same is advised as the best practice for all other researchers.

More details regarding research-specific training can be found in JRMO SOP 34a Researcher Training and SOP 12b Associated Document 2: JRMO Sponsorship review proportionality document
