Course overview

The CTR, which became applicable on 31st January 2022, is directly effective in all EU Member States and introduced the biggest change to the legal framework surrounding clinical trials since the Clinical Trials Directive was implemented. The CTR has already had a global impact as all interventional trials that take place even partially in an EU Member State need to comply with its regulatory requirements, at every stage of the trial life cycle.

This course will provide an essential understanding of the new Regulation and key associated implementing acts and other texts for carrying out clinical trials in the EU.

This will include explaining how the regulation has harmonised procedures for carrying out clinical trials across the EU and to simplify the clinical trial approval dossier by submission through a new clinical trial CTIS (Clinical Trial Information System).

Very nice webinar which gave a good overview of the CTR and the CTIS portal. I liked the parts where the part 1 and part 2 was presented as I think this is not straightforward to understand. Also, I like the small quizzes that were done.

Good overview of the new regulations, presented in an interesting and interactive way. Some of the practical case studies weren't that relevant for me, but hopefully benefitted others.

I like everything about Management forum Courses, hence my attendance for few years now, and I respect Laura's way of presentation, her patience, kindness and we always learn a lot from her. I do look for any opportunity to attend courses which are applicable to my day to day work as I found them useful. Any luck you may run again the All day event like you did couple of years ago, for free where few courses were taking place at the same time and where we could jump from one to another ...?Thanks for all
