Public Interest Global Campaign Pertinent to Scope of GCP &GXP Training Courses

Feb. 5, 2011 - PRLog -- Though Clinical Research is considered one of the best Career Options for the Life Sciences
Graduates,Post Graduates,PhDs  to work as Clinical Research Associates,Clinical Research Coordinators,Monitors,
Regulatory Affairs Executives,Quality Assurance Professionals,Clinical Data Management
Executives,Pharmacovigilance Professionals ,Research Nurses,Principal Investigatgors,
Sub Investigators,Co Investigators etc with prospective employers such as Pharmaceutical,Biotechnology,
Medical Device,Cosmetic Companies;Contract Research Organisations (CROs),Site Management Organisations (SMOs),
Trial Management Organisations (TMOs,Alliance of Hospitals/Hospital Networks,Academic Institutions,Global Voluntary Organisations,
Non Profit Organisations/Trusts,Various Bodies of United Nations such as WHO,UNICEF,Mighty Global Alliances such as GAVI Alliance
which is formed  by WHO,UNICEF,World bank and the  Bill and Milinda Gates Foundation,National Institutes of Health (NIH),Research Departments
of Government agencies etc in Asia,Africa,Oceania,South America and North America,making an entry to this huge Multibillion Dollar Industry is
invariably one of the most Toughest 'Herculian ' tasks indeed,unless Miracles happen.


Since the Stakeholders of R&D Industry incur huge expenditure( USD 600 to 900 million) in their relentless efforts to introduce a new Molcule to the market,
they are not afford to compromise with any avoidable delay in the Clinical Research Process.Hence the Service Providers for the R&D Industry/Clinical Trial
Sponsors too are reluctant to hire Personnel without Relevent Experience in the Clinical Research Industry.The Employer is very particular about
hiring an experienced Professional and the Job seeker is confused trying to decipher and digest this 'Harsh Reality'.He/she develops an irresistable desire
to ask the prospective employer one very simple question; ' How can a Fresher just Graduated from an University have experience in Clinical Research?'.
This 'Chicken and Egg Story' will continue probably till the Doomsday! But on the other hand there is no problem without a solution and 'Even in Darkness
there is Light for those who can Perceive it'!. After all the only Truth of Life is ' Survival of the Fittest and Struggle Existence'( Chales Darwin)


In the past Medical Representatives and those with Management Qualification and excellent communication skills ( written and verbal ),Interpersonal skills,
used to be hired as CRAs,Monitors,Clinical Research Managers etc.Since ensuring Protection of Human Rights,Confidentiality of Medical Information,
Safety and Well being of Clinical Trial subjects is of paramount importance than the experiment and science themselves,all the Professionals engaged in
performing one or more clinical research/trial related tasks must be thorough with ICH GCP ( International Conference on Harmonisation,
Good Clinical Practicies ),WHO,NIH,HHS etc Guidelines & Guidelines and Regulations of various Regulatory bodies (FDA,EMEA etc)
across the World.Since'Eyes can not see when the Mind does not know',during 1980s,many Universities especially in the United States,Canada,Australia,Europe;Private Training Institutes,NIH,Global Professional Bodies of Clinical Research Professionals,CROs etc had introduced
Certificate Courses in Clinical Research.The Unique feature of any Clinical Research Training Initiative is ' What is being taught is most important than who is teaching it'.Every prospective clinical research professional must always remember that  minimum educational qualification required to work as a CRA,CRC etc is a Bachelor's degree in any of the Life Sciences such as Pharmacy,Biotechnology,Microbiology,Zoology,Botany,Medicine,Dentistry etc and
Clinical Research Training is just a 'Tutoring Course' or a Vocational Training Course.


The most common question asked by any prospective Trainee in any country whilst exploring the possibility of enrolling for a GCP /GXP (GCP,GMP,GLP)
Training Program is about 'Job Guarantee/Placement,post Training'.Unfortunately,Clinical Research Job market is one of the most 'Unpredictable'
markets in the World and the reason for this very simple:The number new Jobs are directly proportionate to number of new studies being conducted/planned by Clinical Trial Sponsors,CROs,SMOs,TMOs ,Hospital Networks,Academic Institutions etc.Hence,unless the GCP Training Provider has
existing vacancies or has an existing agreement with a prospective employer,it is 'Absurd' to  expect or offer 'Job/Placement Gurantee.


It is an established fact that the World Economy has become vulnerable to frequent strains/turbulences and second Recession/Economic slowdown is round
the corner.No Industry/Enterprise is immune to the Ruthless Wrath of impending Recession.Hence,every employer in the International Clinical Research
Arena is skeptical  to hire  a Professional without proven track record or potential to become an asset to the Organisation.Even if the Training Provider,inorder  to survive the competition ,manages to arrange a position for the Trainee,it is highly unlikely that the candidate will escape being fired for want of adequate Professional knowledge and skills.


Since Healthcare is falls within the purview of 'Essential Services Act' in any country and Clinical Research is one of the main Pillars of Healthcare
Industry,only the best and most competent Professionals Survive the day today challenges in the work environment.Hence,every Prospective Clinical Research Professional/Trainee must quickly get acclimatised with Guidelines and Regulations Governing Biomedical Research and his/her day today Roles and Responsibilities.After all, 'Perseverance,Hardwork,Determination,Commitment,Dedication,Punctuality,Consistency ' are some of the Key Factors for Success in any Field.
