What employers ask for, and tax basics in Tennessee

Clinical research coordinators run day-to-day activity for clinical trials: screening, consent, visits and data.

Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience
GCP training; SOCRA or ACRP certification is a plus
Experience with clinical trial data systems

Tennessee does not tax wage income at the state level, so take-home pay is higher than the same gross pay in a state that does.
