A framework for upskilling the clinical trial site: Learnings from a clinical trial coordinator workforce capability building pilot program
Although limited by a small sample size, this pilot program has demonstrated the potential of a tailored multi-modal upskilling approach to provide valuable professional learning experiences in clinical trial coordination, and support clinical trial site capability development. Clinical trial sites adoption of upskilling programs requires harmonisation and structured support through adaptive implementation, as described by the CTC upskilling framework. Upskilling CTCs in parallel with increasing clinical trial site capability is required if sites are to be adequately mature, and be able to meet the growing demands of Australian communities.
