NC - Lower Cape Fear

Welcome to the Lower Cape Fear Chapter (LCFC) of the Association of Clinical Research Professionals Web page. The LCFC, initially founded in June 1996, consists of a diverse group of clinical research professionals who represent CROs and medical facilities in our area. Our goal is to provide quality educational and practical programs that cover a wide range of interests. We are continually looking for new opportunities and resources in order to grow as a chapter and enhance our knowledge of clinical research. We are a group committed to the following:
  • professional interaction with colleagues
  • advanced continuing education
  • providing a readily accessible mechanism for regional program development
  • furnishing improved access to ACRP membership resources and opportunities including certification with contact hours

Membership consists of individuals interested in the goals and objectives of ACRP.

The Lower Cape Fear Chapter currently meets on a quarterly basis. The local chapter website will be updated as necessary.
