Why CRO Staff Need Robust Digital Literacy Skills

Digital literacy skills are no longer merely nice to have. They are important for navigating daily life, both at home and at work. For contract research organization teams, digital literacy skills need to keep pace with the rapidly expanding world of decentralized clinical trials, which rely greatly on digital tools.

Without these skills, CRO teams will struggle to design effective clinical trials, boost recruitment and retention efforts, collect and manage data, and disseminate the result of their efforts, among other tasks. Having digital literacy skills also helps patients understand and use certain healthcare technologies, such as wearable devices.

Explore what specific forces are driving the need for strong digital knowledge and how contract research organizations can build those skills for use now and in the future.
