Our clinical research studies are governed by two management groups: the Clinical Trials Office (CTO) which oversees oncology clinical trials, and the Clinical Trials Management Organization (CTMO) which controls non-oncology research. Both groups have comprehensive onboarding programs which include a combination of in-person and online training on all aspects of clinical research operations, electronic medical record and project management software utilization, privacy and security, and appropriate biohazard material handling and shipping. 

The Clinical Research Professional Training Series is a continuing education initiative for Clinical Research Professionals. This series will emphasize regulations, best practices, resources and guidelines pertaining to clinical research conducted at The Ohio State University.

The Society of Clinical Research Associates (SOCRA), Inc. and the Association of Clinical Research Professionals (ACRP) are professional organizations dedicated to the continuing education and development of clinical research professionals. They provide training, continuing education, professional development opportunities and recognized certification programs that promote quality clinical research.
