RACC: Attendees seeking CRA credits through the Research Administrators Certification Council (RACC) may request a certificate of attendance from HCCA by completing an Application for Continuing Education and indicating RACC/CRA on the form. A certificate of attendance along with a complete brochure should be submitted to RACC at the end of each individual’s RACC renewal period. The Research Administrators Certification Council (RACC) promotes the concept of voluntary certification by examination for all research and sponsored programs administrators. Certification in research and sponsored programs administration is highly valued and provides formal recognition of basic knowledge in the field.

SoCRA: The Society of Clinical Research Associates (SoCRA - www.SoCRA.org) accepts documentation of candidate participation in continuing education programs for recertification if the program is applicable to clinical research regulations, operations or management, or to the candidate’s clinical research therapeutic area. This program offers 19 hours of CE credit.

SoCRA's requirements for recertification Continuing Education credit are quite general, as they pertain to clinical research regulations, operations and management, and to the therapeutic area of the clinical research in which the candidate participates. We therefore leave it to the candidate to determine whether a course or program would be acceptable for SoCRA's CE requirement. SoCRA does not “validate” individual training courses/workshops.
