About ACT SMO

Practical clinical research education for the teams closest to execution

ACT SMO is focused on translating applicable educational expertise into professional services that support clinical research teams, sites, and organizations.

The ACT Training Program

The Agile Clinical Trials ACT Training Program was co-created by Morehouse School of Medicine and AbbVie. Its focus includes practical clinical research preparation, community-based trial execution, patient-centered communication, operational readiness, professional education, and applied learning in real-world clinical research environments.

ACT SMO commercializes and scales applicable educational services through licensed curriculum, qualified instructors, faculty experts, and experienced preceptors.
