Re-Inventing Investigator Meetings: From Bore and Snore to Engaging and Effective
Upcoming Courses
As the old adage goes, “telling ain’t training.” Yet the biopharmaceutical and medical device industries are obsessed with PowerPoint as the standard vehicle for conducting investigative site training. Regardless of whether the investigator meeting is done via live or on-line learning modules, there are myriad techniques for enhancing the effectiveness of investigator meetings or any type of site training program. This web seminar will explore principles of adult learning theory, best practices and techniques for helping to accelerate the protocol learning curve, and setting investigative sites up for operational success. Participants will learn why presenting is one of the LEAST effective training methods, and how to move beyond “death by PowerPoint” as a training approach. Through illustrative case examples, participants will also learn both the theory and practice of alternative training strategies and their application to re-inventing investigative site training.
- Discuss the role, importance, and value of performing a site needs assessment prior to developing the content for the investigator meeting
- Describe the elements of an effective learning objective
- Explain the “learn, reflect, apply” training model and how it can be used in structuring effective investigator meetings
- Describe an algorithm for prioritizing training topics for live meetings vs. alternate training venues
- List several techniques for developing highimpact training content
- Project Managers (Sponsors/CROs)
- Learning Specialists (Sponsors/CROs)
- Lead Clinical Research Associates
- Those involved in the planning and execution of investigator meetings/site training programs
