Education
Are you a nurse working in clinical trials, or considering a transition into the clinical trials sector?
NSW Nursing and Midwives’ Association (NSWNMA) partner PRAXIS Australia exists to enhance the understanding and practice of ethical research for the benefit of the broader community through education and training.
PRAXIS Australia is supporting nurses and midwives who are currently working in clinical trials or considering transitioning into the clinical trials sector through their highly regarded and flexible online courses, webinars, and resources.
How the change in the clinical trials landscape will affect you
Changes to GCP guidelines in 2021 and further changes ahead in 2022 will affect how we design, conduct, and manage clinical trials. PRAXIS Australia is helping to upskill and prepare nurses and midwives for these changes with a range of clinical trials training solutions designed to suit your individual needs, including:
PRAXIS’s Clinical Trails core skills set packages provide you with a suggested pathway of study tailored to your level of experience, needs and interests.
The Good Clinical Practice online course will introduce you to the internationally recognised and endorsed Good Clinical Practice standards ICH GCP, and the roles and responsibilities of nurses and midwives working in clinical trials.
PRAXIS also offer a diverse range of virtual workshops to help you upskill and build your confidence and capability in your role.
Helping you stay current in a changing environment
To help support nurses and midwives PRAXIS are offering NSWNMA members a 20% discount across all their course offers by using the code NSWNMA21 when enrolling. For a short time you can also access the highly regarded Good Clinical Practice (GCP) online module at 60% off the standard fee, at just $88.
