Interesting insights
“Very nice approach, all cases were well explained in the provided papers and the interviews always gave interesting insights”
Pierre-Eric Juif, Actelion, Clinical Development Online graduate
Not the traditional classroom
"Clinical development was dissected in a different way than I am used to, which was intriguing. The interface of the online course and exam were really nice: simple and straightforward to interact with, at your own pace and time, and you can go back and forth as you wish, certainly not the traditional way of a frontal classroom interface!”
Ofer Spiegelstein,Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd,Clinical Development Online graduate
