Learning Objectives:

Understand how to lead the technical data management activities on a clinical trial:

  • Explain the data management tasks to be performed from study set-up to close-out
  • Explain key considerations for data collection from various sources including clinical trial assessment visits, patient reported outcomes, electrocardiograph, laboratory data and imaging
  • Describe mechanisms used to allocate tasks to the roles of the data management team
  • Explain how to ensure data quality from the Case Report Form (CRF) design go-live to database lock

Understand the reasons for transparency in clinical trial data management:

  • Describe the reasons for data transparency in clinical trial data management
  • Compare and contrast the use of paper and electronic audit trails
  • Explain access control to clinical trial information

Understand how to integrate clinical study data with other important sources of clinical trial information in accordance with the International Conference on Harmonisation Good Clinical Practice (ICH GCP) principles:

  • Describe other eClinical tools (ePRO/clinical trial management systems/randomisation tools)
  • Explain how information from these systems is useful for clinical data management
  • Evaluate strategies for managing version control challenges when working with classification systems such as the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA)
  • Analyse the importance of computer system validation and the processes involved
Who is the Course Suitable For?

Regulators are increasingly requesting evidence of competence. Experience alone does not provide evidence of competence. The ACDM, in partnership with the International Academy of Clinical Research, has developed a series of training programs supported by comprehensive course work and interactive sessions, providing independently recognized, competence-based accreditation to support the continued professional development of staff involved in the management of clinical trial data.

The Technical Accredited Training Program in Clinical Data Management is aimed at further developing essential technical and applied clinical data management skills. The training courses are highly interactive and supported by comprehensive materials and evaluated course work.

This course is aimed at data management professionals who have some hands-on experience across data management or are new to the data management role
