PEER-BASED MODEL FOR TRAINING RESEARCH STAFF IN MULTI-SITE STUDIES (Pulmonary / Critical Care)
Sarah Darski, MPH, University of Illinois Chicago
Variations in how a study is implemented across sites in a multi-site study could introduce measurement error that adversely affects the internal validity of results. While centralized training sessions or sponsor-led training visits to sites can be helpful, training between peers from experienced sites can help elicit nuance and build relationships that can support training throughout the study. However, little is known about the impact of cross-site, peer-based training, especially through practical observation.
