Our CRA Training Program

Our CRA Training Program has transitioned from a one-size-fits all model to a more flexible approach to accommodate differing employee needs and backgrounds. The curriculum includes a variety of learning components like virtual classroom activities, web-based training, learning clinics, on-the-job training and mentorship opportunities.

• • Learning activities are strategically designed to equip CRAs with extensive exposure to a wide variety of situations they will encounter in their daily work.
  • Web-based training presents learners with scenarios and situations where they make decisions and learn from feedback in a safe environment. These trainings enable CRAs to consider actions and solutions for case study-based hands-on exercises.
  • Learning clinics provide opportunities for social and collaborative learning, and the on-the-job training enables them to learn by performing specific job functions within the workplace.

IQVIA’s approach is to “Train” for the concept and task mastery. “Transfer” the acquired knowledge to quick on-the-job competence. And lastly, “Sustain” by continuous evaluation and performance support. Ultimately, this approach drives holistic development by interweaving technical skills critical for the role with the skills required to manage site interactions effectively.

At IQVIA, you can build a smart, flexible career without limits as a CRA. Ready to find your next role as a Clinical Research Associate? Search open CRA roles.
