Education and Training for Research and Other Sponsored Programs
Consult the BMC research community calendar below for upcoming training and education opportunities. All are free, live, and virtual. Please note that some sessions offer continuing education units; some require registration; and some registrations have a deadline, usually 24-48 hours before the event.
Recordings of recent Research Operations and videos and recordings of the Clinical Research Seminars hosted by BMC/BUMC's Clinical Research Resources Office (CRRO) are available further below. As educational materials become available, they will be added our fledgling collection.

Required Clinical Research Regulatory Training
BMC and Boston University Medical Campus require that all researchers involved in human research must receive formal training. Depending on the type of research you conduct, there are several levels of required training as listed in this section
Velos-CT – Clinical Trial Management System Trainings
The Clinical Trial Office has developed two types of training for Velos.
- VelosCT Basics: This training covers how to use VelosCT to manage study records, participants, and calendar visits. Contact CTO@bmc.org to be assigned a VelosTest training account and obtain the necessary training materials.
- VelosCT|Epic Interface training: This training covers the Velos-Epic interface and the research billing review workflow.
ClinCard – Participant Reimbursement System Training
ClinCard is a web-based reloadable debit card program used for research participant payment issuance, tracking, and reporting. Studies must have an active IRB# in order to participate. This section outlines the steps for attending the training and setting up the ClinCard account.
