ABOUT PRO-FICIENCY
Pro-ficiency's mission is to eliminate protocol deviations, one study at a time, by bringing simulation to clinical trials training. The simulation approach tackles the highest risk areas of the study protocol, enabling clinical research teams to exercise critical decision-making in a risk free environment, much like a flight simulator for pilots. Allowing the study teams to practice protocol implementation and potentially make mistakes in a simulated environment, protects the patient and the study integrity. The result is fewer deviations, better outcomes and rich behavioral data that can drive preventative action that can keep clinical studies on track and on budget.
