IRB: Researcher Training

教职员工

菠菜网lol正规平台 policy requires that faculty and staff who intend to conduct 研究 involving human subjects or who will supervise student 研究 complete a training course prior to the first-time submission of a protocol to the IRB. Refresher courses are required by the 研究处 every five years.

San Jose State University has contracted with the Collaborative Institutional Training Initiative (CITI) to fulfill the mandatory training requirement. CITI provides different types of courses for human subjects 研究 depending upon the discipline area of the 研究er.

To access the human subjects 研究 training courses:

  1. 参观 花旗银行网站.
  2. After you have created an account with CITI using your 菠菜网lol正规平台 email address, select San Jose State University Courses.
  3. Click on "add a course or update learner groups."
  4. Select any 一个 of the courses under question #2 that most closely matches your discipline. NOTE: CITI offers courses on a variety of topics related to responsible conduct of 研究. While you may complete any of the courses available, only 一个 of the courses selected under question #2 will count towards fulfilling the human subjects 研究 training requirement.
