Clinical research associates are currently the highest paid upper-level medical professionals in the pharmaceutical and medical industry, second only to physicians. Many remote and traveling (expenses-covered) jobs are available for CRA positions for those who have a background or certification training. If you're looking to further enhance your qualifications, consider our Clinical Research Coordinator course or our comprehensive CRA training.

The obvious difficulty in searching for these positions is getting selected and interviewed without experience. CCRP Course works directly with:

• International Medical Graduates (MBBS, FMG, IMGs)

• MDs without residence

• Bachelor’s of science or healthcare-related fields

• Bachelor’s of nursing and nurses

• Master’s of science graduates

CCRPS’ courses strives for you to achieve the knowledge, certification, and resume experience needed to be selected and hired by pharmaceutical companies. For those involved in monitoring, consider our Medical Monitor Certification to boost your credentials.

CRAs can expect to make between $75-90k/year within their first year. CRAs who are physicians from foreign countries are considered MDs in this position. CRAs who are transitioned nurses are treated remarkably well among the hospitals they visit or monitor. This role also offers pathways into higher-level administrative and leadership roles in medical centers, institutions, and pharmaceutical companies, which can be further supported by our Advanced Principal Investigator Physician Certification and Advanced Clinical Research Project Manager Certification.

As a supervisor of clinical trials, this position also paves ways to enter higher-level administrative and leadership roles in medical centers, institutions, and pharmaceutical companies.
