Faster Together, Enhancing the Recruitment of Marginalized Communities in Clinical Trials

О курсе

This course aims to teach people how to enhance the recruitment and retention of individuals from minoritized and marginalized communities in clinical trials. We begin by discussing the importance of diversity in clinical research, the lasting impact of past research abuses, and barriers and facilitators to research participation. Next, we explore community engagement principles, effective communication strategies, ways to increase community knowledge and awareness of clinical research, and outreach to community providers. Last, we discuss recruitment planning, person-centered consent, and retention. The course duration is listed as 8 weeks. However, you can work at your own pace and finish the course faster, if so desired. There is no cost to participate in the course; however, there is a fee for obtaining a completion certificate. Financial aid options are available. CME information: Vanderbilt University Medical Center designates this enduring material for a maximum of 8.0 AMA PRA Category 1 Credit(s)™.
