“Where do I begin with the huge impact QCI has had on my career as a CDS so far? The QCI program for Oncology and my Clinical Data Trainer has set me up for complete success here at Q-Centrix and as a CTR. Between the training modules, the practice opportunities, and the feedback I received, I felt supported and successful.”

CTR/ODS and QCI Graduate
“The QCI training program helped reinforce what I had learned in my CTR training and to help me solidify my skills as a clinical data expert. Everyone is so supportive. In the beginning, I was concerned I would feel isolated in my home office. But any time I’m stuck, there is someone available to help, to share a screen, to help me decipher the challenge of the day. At Q-Centrix, I learned there is always somebody to show you the way.”
