Consultation on CRP Accredited Registration

In early 2018, the Department of Health gave approval for the NIHR Clinical Research Network (CRN) to develop the professional identity of Clinical Research Practitioners (CRPs) in a staged approach. In collaboration with the Academy for Healthcare Science (AHCS), the CRP Directory was launched in September 2018 and over 500 CRPs are now publicly listed. The initiative to implement accredited registration for CRPs is therefore gathering pace and past, current and anticipated next stages are illustrated below. The current stage is highlighted red.
