VIRTUAL WORKSHOP
Our training and education offers have been developed according to Australian and international best practice standards.
Our modules are built upon the competencies developed by the Harvard Multi-Regional Trials Centre (MRCT) and aligned to competencies recommended by the NHMRC.
These training offers are regarded as a benchmark for researchers, clinical trials, and healthcare professionals in Australia and internationally.
Ensuring Effective Project Management
“The way it was delivered is really effective. The presenter was capable to keep our attention continuously until the end and presented it in such an interesting manner. Because I am managing the system releases in the department this knowledge will help me a lot, especially not coming from a project managing role. Learnt lots of new knowledge! thank you!” – Maneesha Kandamby, Data Systems Manager, ANZDATA
“The fact that it was in context of a clinical trials setting made the concepts and material more relevant, engaging and palatable. The icing on the cake was the section about self-management – an important message that can often be overlooked and made this course seem more people orientated, placing importance on the human aspect of this industry.” – Nuy Chau, Clinical Trials Coordinator, CSIRO
Clinical trials and research involving humans are considered some of the most complex projects to manage.
They are bound by factors such as time, resources, and quality, and make important contributions to the health and wellbeing of society.
Yet, traditionally we have not applied project management strategies, unlike every other industry and sector.
By applying these accepted techniques, you can provide greater assurance to funders and participants that your research will achieve its aims – on time, on budget and to expected standards.
Discover the key elements of what it takes to manage projects successfully and methodically in research and clinical trials by applying established and recognised methodologies.
You will walk away with a renewed sense of confidence and a tool kit of resources to help get you started – or to build on current systems and processes.
You can claim 4 CPD points on completion of the workshop.
What will you learn?
On completion, you will be able to:
- Develop your own stakeholder engagement and management plan, so you’re able to maximise and sustain funding and uptake of your research findings in clinical practice
- Identify ways to maximise and allocate your resources, helping to increase efficiency and reduce stress
- Reduce risk at your facility by creating your own risk management matrix and risk assessment process
- Boost your team and personal productivity via new time management tips and tricks, so you can accomplish more
- Understand how to include patient and public involvement in research and project planning to help improve the quality and relevance of your project
- Apply root cause analysis and corrective and preventative action planning to various scenarios, so that the re-occurrence of a problem can be reduced or eliminated
- Know the basic principles of quality management and its role in project management
- Describe the 5 traditional stages of project management and how to apply them to your research and clinical trials
