The training that sits between wound care and clinical research

SerenaGroup is building a professional education program in wound care clinical research, out of the protocols we run rather than from a training company's catalogue. It is not finished, and we would rather ask the people who would take it than guess.

This program is being designed now. Nothing on this page is an offer to enroll, no fee is being collected, and no date has been set. Tell us what would make it worth your time and we will keep you informed.

Why this program

Nobody teaches this.

Generic GCP training teaches you how to run a trial. Wound care CE teaches you how to treat wounds. Neither teaches you how to run a wound trial.

That gap is what this program is being built to close.

Wound studies carry their own endpoints, measurement demands, blinding problems and documentation standards. That is where sites lose data quality and audit readiness, and it is the part no existing course covers.

decisions locked on format, depth or credential. That is what we are asking you about.

The curriculum

Six modules, in development

Module 01

Wound care clinical science and assessment

Wound biology, healing stages and impaired healing. Anatomy, classification, assessment and documentation standards, and the wound types that appear most in trials.

Module 02

Study interventions, wound products and devices

Advanced therapies, matrices, tissue-engineered products and negative pressure. Applying investigational wound products, and how masking and blinding work in device and drug trials.

Module 03

Trial design and conduct in wound care

Endpoint design for wound closure, recurrence, infection, granulation and pain. Randomization and control arms, wound imaging, and keeping measurement consistent across follow-up.

Module 04

Operational protocols, safety and adverse events

Debridement methods, safe handling of chronic wounds, infection control, and identifying and reporting adverse events.

Module 05

Site and staff competency and measurement

Applying, removing and changing specialized wound products and devices. Calibrating and using measurement equipment, from rulers and tracing to digital planimetry, and running a multidisciplinary team.

Module 06

Good clinical practice, ethics and quality data

The six foundational documents, good documentation practice specific to wound care, and informed consent training.

The scope above is settled. The format, the depth, the time commitment and whether it carries a credential are not. Those are the questions we are asking you.

Who it is for

People who run wound trials, and people who want to.

If you run, or want to run, wound care clinical trials, this is being built for you.

  • Wound care sites and clinics moving into research, training a team rather than one person.
  • Clinical research coordinators and research nurses who need the wound-specific layer on top of GCP.
  • Wound care nurses, NPs and physicians moving into research for the first time.
  • Investigators taking on wound protocols.
  • Sponsor and CRO staff overseeing wound studies and the sites that run them.

What happens with your answers
You tell us

Ten questions about what would make this worth your time.

It goes to the committee

Answers go to the SerenaGroup education committee as evidence, not opinion.

We build around them

Format, depth, time commitment and credential are decided from what the room actually said.

You hear first

We will tell you what the room said, not only what we decided to build.
