Data Management on-the-job guide
for clinical pharma contractors

These pages will host our on-the-job guide which will be a series of workshops for all clinical professions. Their aim is to help you in your day-to-day activities whether you work in data-entry or you're an off-site CRA. Whether you need reference material on documentation, require input into project management or simply are looking at new ways to get tasks done, these on-the-job guides should be able to lead you in the right direction.

But, we need your input! You are the ones after all who have the experience. So if you have new ways of doing things which you find far more efficient than some of the regimented procedures you often find in new work environments then let us know.

Contractors are often in a good position to see how new procedures can improve work flow. By moving between different clients you pick up a wealth of knowledge - why not share it here! But please ensure you are not broadcasting client-specefic procedures - remember that confidentiality clause you signed!
