Training helps ensure that collaborators at the research site can collect, process, and transport samples in accordance with good clinical practice standards; ensure the rights of research participants. At the same time, training helps increase interaction and solve difficulties at collaborators’ workplaces. From there, it helps improve the quality and efficiency of sample collection.
