Are you an individual interested in getting involved in clinical research, but not sure where to start? The Canadian Primary Care Trials Network (CPCTN) invites you to apply for a new, hands-on training program designed to build your confidence and skills as a site investigator in primary care trials.
Participants in this program will receive structured guidance from initial idea through to study proposal, including one-on-one mentorship and support from an experienced clinical trialist. They will gain practical skills in clinical trial design and conduct and build confidence to participate in or lead randomized controlled trials.
