Survey Objectives

To validate JTF domains/competencies through perceptions

  • f clinical research professionals.

How do the competencies relate to:

  • Roles, Job Titles
  • Perceptions of competence and relevance
  • Educational Levels
  • Educational Needs
  • Identify gaps for future study and workforce development

Scale of Self-Assessed Responses

Competence:

0 Never been exposed to this content 1= Aware of the content, but never needed to become further informed; 2= Exposed and sufficiently aware of content that I can look up what might be necessary for my job; 3= Competent–Able to interpret or discuss concepts and use knowledge to solve simple problems based on application concepts; 4 = Mastery–able to apply knowledge to complex problems, integrate information and create solutions

Relevance:

0 = unnecessary, no relevance to my role;

1 = has some relevance to my role, but not my responsibility; 2 = relevant to my role, but not a major component; 3 = significant to my role and part of my job responsibilities; 4 = major part of my responsibility or supervisory expectations 4

Comments to regional differences

  • Need to confirm regional findings (focus groups) or surveys among

representative samples from participating countries

  • Need to explore further according to source of employment

(academic, industry, CROs)

  • Questionnaire was conducted in English. Need for language validation

to confirm full understanding of the individual competency

  • In spite the large sample size, internal regional demographics could

skew the interpretation of results

  • Several hypothesis can be formulated
