Your school is required to certify that the PI has completed your
institution's human subjects training, usually as part of the Just-In Time
information NIH will request if it decides to fund the grant.  If your
school chooses to accept NIH's on-line training, that's fine, but the PI is
not required to take that tutorial--only the training thatyour school
endorses.

Subject: [RESADM-L] NIH "Human Participants Protection Education for
Research Teams" tutorial

Good afternoon,

We have very few NIH proposals/awards so it is usually "first time/every
time" for me when we do. It is my understanding that a PI proposing a
project requiring use of human subjects must take the NIH on-line tutorial
on this subject and send a copy of the resulting certificate with his/her
proposal. (This is in addition to our internal human subjects board
review/approval.) My PI can't find this requirement in his particular
announcement so is questioning if he has to do it.

Is this a blanket requirement for all NIH research involving human subjects
whether mentioned or not in the announcement?

Thanks, as always . . .
