The Chicago State University IRB requires every primary investigator to complete a tutorial in "Human Subject Protections" within the past two years. You may click on the link below to access the National Institutes of Health (NIH) webcourse in Human Subject Protections sponsored by the National Cancer Institute (NCI). This webcourse requires approximately 60 minutes of time to complete, but allows you to print out a Certificate of Completion at the end of the course. You may submit this as evidence in support of your protocol as having completed a required course in human subject protections. Please choose one of the following web-based tutorials:

Please note that there are other acceptable courses in "Human Subject Protections" including registration for and participation in any regional conference sponsored by the Office of Research Integrity (ORI), local conferences attended in the last two years (with documentation) and other web-based courses. For more information regarding the acceptability of other documentation of human subject protection course, please contact Dr. Esther Jenkins at: ejenkins@csu.edu or (773) 995-2196.
