Description
Summary:PAREXEL International Corp is a leading global biopharmaceutical services company, providing a broad range of expertise-based clinical research, consulting, medical communications, and technology solutions and services to the worldwide pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and medical device industries. While PAREXEL is part of a globally evolving market with many potential business opportunities, well-skilled staff members who can manage clinical trials are a scarce resource. The PAREXEL Academy launched the successful "Clinical Monitor | Clinical Trial Management" postgraduate certificate program for science graduates. The program aims to prepare academically qualified newcomers with a solid clinical research knowledge basis to qualify them for career options in the biopharmaceutical and clinical research industry. Academy graduates are a continuous source of well-trained employees who are qualified and prepared to join the PAREXEL workforce or other companies in the clinical research sector. The employment rate of course graduates has been exceptionally high over the last 15 years, with approximately 90% of program participants employed within the first three months of graduation.
