Alliance Clinical RESEARCH PROFESSIONAL Research Integrity Service Excellence Award (ALLIANCE CRP RISE Award)
The Alliance for Clinical Trials in Oncology recognizes that clinical research professional (CRP) staff at Alliance participating sites are integral to the success of our mission to provide clinical trial participants with the best service possible. The Alliance Clinical Research Professionals Research Integrity Service Excellence Award was introduced in 2024 to recognize Alliance CRPs for their outstanding service. Alliance aims to celebrate site CRPs who exemplify excellence through quality, patient advocacy, professional development, and leadership with compassion, integrity, respect, safety, and teamwork. Alliance is seeking nominations of Alliance member CRPs demonstrating these qualities.
Awardees will receive travel funding to attend the upcoming Alliance Fall Group meeting taking place November 5-7 in Chicago, IL. The award will be presented during the plenary session, and the awardee will have opportunity to share their methods for success via a presentation during the CRP Education Session or an article in the Alliance newsletter.
The above are standards CRPs should strive for in their daily work. When preparing a nomination, use specific examples and avoid general descriptions as much as possible. Be sure to complete all four areas of excellence within the nomination form.
