The GCP courses are recognised by the Ethics Committees and Medicines Control Council and deemed compulsory before commencing clinical research. They are CPD accredited by the HPCSA, including Ethics Points.
There is a ‘take home’ written test at the end of the Basic course and the Step by Step course and successful candidates will receive a Wits University ‘Certificate of Attendance’ which is valid for three years.
Those attending the Update Course must have attended a basic course first. They will not be required to write a test and an ‘Attendance Certificate’ is issued. Certificate valid for three years.
The courses are not specifically focused for CRAs but they are welcome to attend should they wish.
