@0:19 - Courtney Fulkerson (CCRPS): "All right. Could you share some of your favorite moments from the course that enrich your learning experience?"

@0:25 - Ossai Opene: "Oh, well, I was thinking in terms of the presentation, the videos were quite very helpful. They were straight to the points and quite easy to follow. I did take some notes, but yeah, they were quite easy to follow. Then at the end of each model, those I had like some sample questions to go through. That's a test. said acquisition of knowledge."

@0:59 - Ossai Opene: "They also. Yeah. they have to just stimulate someone to go back and advance what I've learned or just move forward."

@1:33 - Ossai Opene: "Yeah, it took a while though. I mean, I was just searching how to get into the clinical research space because I'm looking for something I could maybe work remotely as it gets me be. And then CCRPS came to mind. So, I'm looking around pretty nice to my personality and what I want to achieve. And then each time I research, you know, your organization pops up at the top."

@2:42 - Courtney Fulkerson (CCRPS): "Yeah, and you liked everything that was within the content of the course?"

@2:47 - Ossai Opene: "Yes, everything. there are some that but were pretty easy to kind of go through because of my background. Before now, I'm taking a class in design and implementation of clinical trials from John Hopkins University. That was also pretty helpful when I saw that module in the past year of course. I said, okay, that's fine."

@3:14 - Ossai Opene: "So then when it comes to inspections and audits, I'm already familiar with the, I would say with ingredients, but the application of the clinical research is different, but the same methodology. it was easy to also fall out as well. So overall, it was a good experience for me to go through the program."

@6:14 - Ossai Opene: "Hi, no, it was pretty robust."

@7:05 - Ossai Opene: "Oh, I can't think of any, because I did have conversations with your folks online, and so it's planning to lose about three to four months, and that helped me to make up my mind to take the class with you, with your organization."

@8:00 - Ossai Opene: "Ah, I would definitely go to those programs again because I'm not, I'm not actively seeking for a job right now, but yes, I like to go through the programs again, but the bot here is I'm not sure how you structure, um, uh, again, from my background."

@20:17 - Ossai Opene: "Oh, I was everything. Then I would say more in the meat. The meat is the rule of the CRO, CRO, CPIs and how they eat and connect."

@21:00 - Ossai Opene: "Experience. I will say quality of delivery, quality of the materials. will say the fact that is is online and you take that your own pace so some folks are busy walking so they don't have any time in world to sit down in classroom and go through this."

@22:22 - Courtney Fulkerson (CCRPS): "Good. And I feel like your confidence just in the area has definitely grown and hopefully it will take you into your next position."
