Infonetica has recently added a new member to its family: the OnlineGCP international network for Good Clinical Practice certification. The launch of the network is aimed at delivering the same high-quality service the company is well known, while making accessible to international clinical research professionals a proven and valuable, though less traditional way of GCP certification.
The defining characteristics of online GCP training, as opposed to its traditional counterpart, are autonomy, efficiency, and flexibility. The OnlineGCP multilanguage network makes sure to acquaint people internationally and educate them in the principles of ICH-GCP. Dedicated websites so far cover Germany, France, Spain, Poland, The Czech Republic, The Netherlands, Belgium, and Russia.
However, the best is yet to come, as in the near future the OnlineGCP network is going to become a global one, launching additional dedicated websites, including a North American one.
Good Clinical Practice is an international quality standard provided by the International Conference on Harmonisation of Technical Requirements for Registration of Pharmaceuticals for Human Use (or ICH). The latter is an international body, whose defined standards can be used by governments to transpose into regulations for clinical trials, involving human subjects.
Since 1995, ICH-GCP guidelines have become a global factor in clinical research and have solidified their impact in traditional clinical trial hubs, such as Japan, North America, and The EU. At the same time, their importance is growing perennially in developing clinical market regions.
