Benefits of Central Alabama Chapter Membership

Becoming an active member in your local ACRP chapter is a great way to learn more about clinical research in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industry and it also provides many great benefits; a member of the Central Alabama Chapter of ACRP can expect to receive the following benefits:

• Obtaining research-related continuing education credits for each speaker meeting you attend – which counts towards certification maintenance
• Discounted registration for chapter sponsored educational programs
• Networking in all areas of research with other engaged research professionals
