Expand Your Clinical Research Skills with the COBALT Curriculum 

Expand Your Clinical Research Skills with the COBALT Curriculum 

Clinical research is constantly evolving, and that means continuously developing new skills and knowledge if you want to stay ahead. ITHS wants to make that easier, so we are proud to share that the Competency-Based All-Level Training (COBALT) curriculum is now available on the ITHS TREE Learning Management System.

COBALT is designed to help both new and experienced clinical research coordinators enhance their expertise through a flexible, customizable training experience. This curriculum covers a broad range of essential topics, from regulatory compliance to study management, and is aligned with the eight core competency domains established by the Joint Task Force (JTF). With a mix of recorded presentations and interactive e-modules, COBALT provides engaging, accessible learning opportunities that fit into busy professional schedules.

One of the biggest advantages of COBALT is its customizable approach to training. Participants can enroll in individual courses that align with their current projects and career goals or follow a structured training plan. Whether you need a refresher on informed consent, or to tailor your learning experience to what matters most in your role – with its mix of self-paced and guided learning, COBALT is a valuable resource for research professionals looking to expand their skills without disrupting their day-to-day responsibilities.
