c4c beneficiaries from academia, patient advocacy and EFPIA have collaborated to develop the c4c Training Academy to educate and upskill paediatric clinical trial staff. Over the past seven years, over 40 courses have been developed on topics including paediatric GCP, involving patients and families in clinical trial design, Paediatric Investigation Plans (PIP), delivering remote and hybrid paediatric clinical trials, as well as courses designed to support clinical trial site staff in delivering the c4c Proof of Viability (PoV) studies. All of these courses have been made available to c4c beneficiaries via the c4c Academy Platform. The c4c Academy platform has been visited over 44,000 times during the course of the project (an average of 537 accesses per month), by over 2000 people in 20 countries. This is a huge achievement, and we are pleased to announce that the c4c Training Academy will be continued by the c4c successor organisation c4c-S and a core set of training courses will be made available to c4c National Hubs and their sites’ staff.
c4c-S have appointed Penta * as the new training provider of c4c courses.
