Course in The Protection of Human Research Subjects

UNE requires all research staff (whether or not listed in proposals) to have taken or renewed the CITI web-based training course on Human Subject Research Protection.

The course should be taken prior to submission of proposal to aid in informing the application. Applications for IRB review will not be accepted until the Lead Investigator at

UNE has completed his or her human subjects training.

If a member of the research staff has completed CITI training with another university, institution, organization, etc. within the last 24 months,

then a completion certificate must accompany the application.

 Only CITI training will be accepted.
