Human Subjects Training Requirement,
12/28/2005
On December 11, 2006, the IRRC approved a revision to their Human Subjects Training requirement. The length of time for valid certification of Human Subjects Training has changed from one year to two years. At the end of the two-year period, all Investigators and key research personnel will be asked to submit verification of recertification of their Human Subjects Training to the IRB/Research Office.
As of October 11, 2004, the IRRC implemented a requirement for Human Subjects Training for all researchers and key research personnel with research projects involving human subjects (on-going or new) conducted at Sparrow Health System facilities. Key personnel would include any of the research team members that have involvement in obtaining informed consent or access to a subject's protected health information.
Verification of Human Subjects Training will be required before the IRRC will review new or continuing research projects. This training is free of charge to the researcher, and re-certification will be required every two years.
There are three Human Subjects Training Tutorials available for this certification. You may choose any of the following sites:
Note: if you choose the MSU tutorial site and you are not affiliated with MSU, you will need to create (and keep) a 9 digit number (instead of your social security number) to access the tutorial.
