What you’ll learn
About this course.
Course Description
During the Advanced Clinical Project Management course, you will get the chance to advance essential skills needed in the senior PM position you are in or aiming for.
You will get to know the Quality by Design (QbD) principles and how to take a solution-oriented approach to resolving problems.
Advanced concepts will be presented, including building team performance, budget and timelines management, ensuring adequate patient enrolment potential before beginning a trial, strategies when enrolment is not progressing as planned, etc.
Tips and tricks on how to track delay and prevention, advanced concepts around vendor contract management and reporting techniques are presented to make your project successes more visible within your organisation and beyond.
You will learn the basics for setting a team vision since vision building should not only be as clear as possible to team members, it should also be as meaningful as possible for project success.
All concepts are presented in a dynamic, interactive manner to facilitate learning and retention.
