Clinical Research Coordinator (CRC) orientation
CRC orientation is designed to provide tools and structure to assist with the important process of onboarding new CRC hires. This 10-day orientation consists of approximately 20 hours of online modules, 20 hours of facilitated topics and activities, and 40 hours of on-the-job training.
The new CRC hires will be part of a cohort that meets daily from 8-10 a.m. for facilitated topics and activities. The remainder of the time will be spent either participating in online modules or in mentored on-the-job training.
CRC orientation objectives:
- Provide overview of basics of clinical research
- Introduce resources for support and coordination of protocols
- Allow employees to experience their work unit right away and build connections and context
