RCORE is a great career credential. The range of teaching methodologies reflects the complexity of clinical trials. The use of a combination of intensive classroom training and the hands-on-skill building was very effective.

RCORE  FELLOWSHIP TRAINING IN CLINICAL TRIALS OVERSIGHT

I want to thank the FDA for organizing such valuable capacity-building training as this will significantly add value to my professional career. I hope and pray that the RCORE training will continue to grow from strength to strength to support the region in human resource development.

-Dr. Alhagie Mutarr Bah

Being in this beautiful land of Ghana has been a great experience. The RCORE program has enlightened me in the area of clinical trial inspection and Technical Advisory Committee meetings. I have appreciated the interactions, enjoyed the multinational diversity and the love extended to me. I leave as a better regulator, looking forward to implementing the lessons learnt to improve clinical trial regulation in Kenya. I highly appreciate my agency (Pharmacy and Poisons Board, Kenya) for the nomination to attend this session. I recommend this RCORE to all regulators.
