No, I don't teach live at all. I don't lecture at all. I do create courses, but I didn't in the beginning. Most courses are already built and then you change due dates and sometimes assignments if you feel inclined. I facilitate many discussion b...

Honestly, you just need to apply. With that said, you should have at least one tier higher degree (or equal, not lesser) than what you are teaching. I teach in undergrad programs, but I do teach a few grad level core courses with my MSN. Being an R...

Sure, I'm happy to chat :)

I teach online full time. I usually have two courses during the Summer (they run just 8 weeks) and then I carry 3-4 online classes during each semester which is 16 weeks. Each class varies in enrollment but 25 in each is pretty typical. I also part...

You don't need research experience to be a research nurse. You need skills such as being detail oriented, good with patients, able to draw blood, and want to advance medicine. The rest of the job can be learned! You just have to find the right pos...

Go with NP. Then you can be a principal investigator on a clinical research trial!

There are a variety of terms that research enterprises use for nurses: research nurses, research nurse coordinators, research coordinator, clinical trial coordinator, etc. Go to LinkedIn for some help in finding research positions. They show up on m...

Dealing with bills is one of the worst parts of a research nurse coordinator role. Having patients registered in portals that both hospital billing and research billing have access to (such as Velos) can help intercept some of the charges. I have lea...

I graduated from an online university and obtained my MSN in 2011. In 2014, I was offered my first online teaching position. I now teach for an university that is both "brick and mortar" and online. I teach online research courses as an adjunct. ...

Don't give up! Literally apply everywhere possible. Get on LinkedIN and start networking your way into a job.

You could do a literature search and find a plethora of articles on GMO's both pro and con. As for me, I avoid GMO's. I am not currently working on any trials regarding GMO's but I would be most interested in reading about new or current research r...

You definitely need to stick it out where you are at and get that one year of nursing under your belt. There are clinical research programs (master's degree) where you can start now and learn all about research. You can also go to: Association of C...

It sounds like you should walk, not run, away from this position. Your boss is likely being pressured to meet recruitment numbers and drawing you into it. You should feel good about what you do. If you are giving your all, and it's not enough, it's t...

I hold a general MSN. I will say that I agree with the previous posts. With that being said, I do feel my MSN helped me land a good position in an academic medical center in oncology trials. Perhaps it set me apart, I don't know. It may make more...

We are hiring! I need another research nurse and another clinical research coordinator in my group. We are in Kansas City at KUMC. Contact me today for details...you need a CCRC (or willing to test and obtain it) and have a minimum of an associate's ...

I love it! Very interesting work, especially in phase I studies. I am in hematology-oncology. We are hiring! I need another research nurse and another clinical research coordinator in my group. We are in Kansas City at KUMC. Contact me today fo...

My current title is Sr. Research Nurse; I have been working in clinical trials since 2000. I have certification with the ACRP. Many research offices use the title clinical research coordinator. I've held this title as well in the past. We are looking...

The practicum is completely individual.

I received my MSN through the University of Phoenix. They have a basic MSN program that is 39 credits without a specialty attached to it. Of course, you can then seek post-master's certification in various areas to make the MSN more specific to an ...

I just completed my MSN, but without a "specialty" associated with it. It is my hope that my advanced degree coupled with my ACRP certification will show future employers that I'm a clinical research nurse specialist even though the ANCC doesn't reco...

Only you know your financial situation. If you can handle waiting for something better, wait. It appears that the shift is an issue for you. With that being said, it is rare that a day shift would go to a new grad. I started out on evenings as a ...

I just got a call from this company, and am filling out the paperwork. So you love the work? How many hours were you "promised?" Are you getting the hours you expected? I'm about to take the leap and turn in my paperwork!

I'd love to teach online for clinical research. I have ten years experience in coordinating. I'll be completing my MSN Feb. 2011. Any tips how to get into that aspect of clinical research education?

so how did things work out for you?
