Human Research Training
罢丑别听provides access to courses that are designed to be used by institutions and organizations to provide comprehensive training in a variety of areas such as Institutional Review Board (IRB), Good Clinical Practice (GCP), Responsible Conduct of Research (RCR) and others.
CITI is the accepted human subjects protections training module at 糖心Vlog. All Florida Atlantic researchers conducting research that involves human subjects must complete the CITI online training.
