You don’t need a medical background. You need a bachelors degree at the minimum. Most importantly is the training. I have business degree and worked as a CTA at a CRO and am now a CRA.
Very good question. Priority has everything related to patient safety (e.g. AEs, ADRs, SAEs) and data quality (e.g. query resultion timelines), but also open questions about recruitment and other problems (e.g. missing lab stuff, missing resources). A CRA should be able to build-up a trustful relationship to learn about problems. Nobody reports problems to people they do not trust.
what undergraduate degrees do you recommend & does it have to be a life science degree? (I know that a science/math degree is preferred. For example, what if your work/volunteer experiences suffices that and if you have a degree in a different matter (business degree, journalism degree, or communications studies degree)
Dear Laura According to GCP a CRA should have clinical or scientific background. As a CRA you need to report a lot which might be easier for a journalist and you need to communicate what is easier for a communication scientist. Many backgrounds fits, the best CRAs a usually allrounders.
Just curious. If it’s estimated 60% traveling, and she have been to different countries in Europe, how did she handle the language barrier? I mean me for example, I worked in different hospital in Germany as a nurse, but none of those who I encounter can speak or understand English very well. In the site (area) where she mentioned, will there be a representative there who can speak or talk with you in a common language?
I am on-boarding rn as a CRA and in a Master's of Clinical Research program. From what I understand, the working language is English, even in the EU. But I am sure they will have someone to translate if needed.
Very well sorted video. Thanks for that. Whats your opinion on a Hospital Pharmacist, joining the CR-Industry ? How would you compare between the two, given the choice ?
Great information, and questions were structured perfectly.. thank you!

Hello sir when IP is breaking during travelling and come to the study then what dose with this IP product..
The subtitles keep show the CIA not CRA, making me thinking about should i turn of this video or i may get into trouble😂
Everybody can become a CRA? "Slight advantage with life science education"? Doesn´t make a very serious impression with regard to what ICH says.
