The requirement for education in the protection of human subjects was
posted in the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts.  See

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 . . .
