Upcoming CCTS Events

Standards for the conduct of research, particularly clinical studies and trials, have never been higher or more complex. From meeting institutional, state, and federal funding guidelines to ensuring uniformity in the execution of routine functions in a department or office, clear processes and procedures have likewise become critically important.

The CCTS SOP Library offers nearly two dozen templates for establishing standard operating procedures (SOPs), easily tailored to fit your clinical operating, regulatory, and fiscal management needs. Help your research team perform at its best while also ensuring your research meets risk-based monitoring rules with our SOPs.

Below we list several templates currently available. This list is not exhaustive, and we plan to add several more in the near future, so bookmark this page as a helpful resource.
