Human Subjects Protection Training
Before a protocol will be approved by a CU IRB, the
PI must review the Human Subjects Protection Training course and receive a
passing score of 80 or greater on the relevant exams. Research personnel other
than the PI who have contact with subjects, contact with confidential study
data, or are otherwise engaged in the research (i.e., key personnel) must also
complete training in the protection of human subjects prior to participation in
the research.
Effective October 20, 2010, there is a requirement
for refresher training to be completed every 3 years. In addition, all research
personnel who have previously completed the CUMC Good Clinical Practices Courses
or the Morningside Human Subjects Training Course must complete the CITI Human
Subjects Protection Training Program no later than March 31, 2011.

Protection training requirements, please see our FAQs.
