Training and access

What training do I need?

Before you can access Florence, you must complete the training relevant to your role. If you will perform more than one role, you must complete the training for all the activities you will carry out.

Which training route applies to me?

 

Will I perform more than one role?

Complete the training for every role you will perform. For example, if you will sign documents as an investigator and manage study documents, you will need to complete both relevant training routes before access is granted.

How do I request access?

  1. Complete all training relevant to your role.
  2. Save a copy of each training certificate.
  3. Send your certificate or certificates to your local Florence Champion.
  4. Your Champion will add you to the live environment and assign permissions appropriate to your role.
  5. Florence will normally send you an invitation after your Champion adds you.

What documents do I need to upload?

Once you have been invited to the live environment, upload the following mandatory documents to the appropriate folder in the Training and Education binder:
  • Florence training certificate
  • current CV, signed using the annotation function in Florence
  • most recent Good Clinical Practice certificate
  • Florence Attestation
  • Signature and Handwriting Credentials form
You can also upload other evidence of essential training and qualifications, such as informed-consent or IATA training. Check whether your division has additional requirements.

 

Which Florence environment do I need?

Florence has separate live and testing environments. Choose the environment that matches what you need to do.

Use the live environment for approved study activity. Request access from your local Florence Champion and provide evidence that you have completed the training relevant to your role.

 

Use the Florence testing environment when you need to practise or complete an activity outside the live system. Request access from your local Champion. Champions should request access from JRMO superusers.
