Frequently asked questions about working in the Central and Eastern European Region:

Is the site staff fluent in English?

 Yes. Investigators and Clinical Trial Coordinators are always fluent in English. General working communication in English at sites amongst

site staff in the CEE is expected and delivered.

Is working in the CEE region affordable?

Yes. Extremely low costs are not to be expected but, the CEE Region offers the best cost to benefit ratio worldwide. Currently Central and

favorable in CEE Region. CEE Clinical Investigations are also an emerging market.
