Veeda Clinical Research Training

Veeda Clinical Research recognises that effective training and development of its personnel is of paramount importance.

With the amalgamation of Phase 1 CTU Ltd in the UK and ClinSearch Pvt Ltd in India and the decision to run the two as a single operation - Veeda Clinical Research - a global training and development plan is being prepared. In this way we can assure the pharmaceutical industry that uniformly high standards are applied in both sites, as well as fulfilling the training & development needs of our staff.

In addition to the core global training requirements in GXP, applicable International and National Regulations, Health & Safety and Emergency Procedures - practical training for clinical research staff is centred on Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs). All clinical research personnel are assessed on their knowledge of, and ability to work to, local, global and study-specific SOPs. With a policy of training all staff to the same standards and using the same monitoring and ECG equipment throughout the Company, multiple-site studies can be carried out simultaneously with an assurance of no potential or actual disparities in data obtained.

We have a structured training program in place whereby personnel from India will spend up to 6 months working in the UK facility. A number of people from Veeda India have already begun placements at Veeda UK and in the near future key staff from the UK will be spending periods of time in India. In particular, physicians and other clinical staff, project managers, QA and training personnel will spend time working in both facilities.
