Professional Development

 At Campbell Alliance, learning starts on your very first day—and never stops!  You will have numerous and ongoing opportunities to develop professionally through instructor-led, online, and on-the-job training and mentoring.

As a member of the consulting team, you will hit the ground running.  Your first week at Campbell Alliance will be dedicated solely to intense training.  In addition to learning about all the tools and resources available at your fingertips, you will also attend scenario-based "ACT" or "Accelerated Consulting Training," where you will have opportunities to learn, practice, and apply the skills needed to not only do the job, but do the job well. The training team also offers ACT II, designed for consultants who are moving up through the ranks, and consists of Managing Projects, Managing Staff, Developing Deliverables, and Presenting at, Leading and Facilitating Meetings.

Training doesn't stop there.  Campbell Alliance offers many other training opportunities, all of which are posted, tracked and reported through the Learn Center, Campbell Alliance's online Learning Management System.  In addition to instructor-led training, including Situational Leadership^®, Communication Skills, and Presentational Speaking, you will have access to well over 100 online courses. These include:

We’re constantly developing or enhancing other live and online courses, such as consulting management training.

Training continues far beyond that found in our formal courses.  Campbell Alliance works in a team environment.  As a member of our consulting team, you will be working side by side with the most knowledgeable and well-respected consultants in the pharmaceutical and biotech industries; you’ll be supported by knowledgeable researchers and editors, and interact with clients who are at the forefront of their industry and entrusted with critical initiatives.  The quantity and quality of consulting and pharmaceutical industry knowledge you will gain through your association with both your clients and peers is immeasurable.
