To conduct human subjects research, researchers (faculty, staff, and students) need to have completed one of the following CITI courses under the Human Subjects Research question within the last three (3) years:
- Human Subjects Research – Researcher
- Social & Behavioral Research – Basic/Refresher (only if you have completed this before)
- Biomedical Research – Basic/Refresher (only if you have completed this before)
Note: IRB required training is different than Responsible Conduct of Research (RCR), which covers topics related to research misconduct (fabrication, falsification, plagiarism). Be sure to take the Human Subjects Research – Researcher course and not the RCR courses, unless the project is funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) or National Science Foundation (NSF) as the RCR course is also required by the funding agency.
