Good morning everyone! I am currently working as an Occupational Therapist at a Level 1 center but am looking to pivot into the clinical research field. Can anyone give any insight into transitioning from bedside to clinic research? Everytime I look online there seems to be certificate programs that may or may not be a scam/waste of money. Would appreciate any thoughts, insight, personal experience, referral., etc.!

Thank you!

Hi everyone! Just wanted to bump this post

A Research University is a great place to start. as an example, Emory University has many research opportunities. also you may want to become certified in Clinical Research with Socra or ACRP. but you can get hired as a clinical research coordinator to begin your journey. indeed has many postings for clinical research coordinator in different states. Good Luck!
