HW #2: IRB Certification for Ethical Treatment of Human Subjects

Due date: See class schedule page
Note: This is an individual assignment, not a team assignment

Take and pass the IRB tutorial (Ethical Use of Humans in Research) at the CITI site, which is linked from the IRB ethics training page below. It's a simple tutorial with small quizzes at the end of each chapter. After you have passed the module, take a screenshot showing the module completed. Turn in the pdf file using TEACH. If you already have a certificate, then you can turn in a pdf of it. (You don't need to bring a hardcopy of this one.)

Note: If the site doesn't give you a "certificate", a screenshot showing that you've passed all the required quizzes is fine.

Note: If the site asks you for money, you've done the wrong thing. There is nothing you need to pay for.

Exception:
If you previously passed some other IRB training course about ethical treatment of human subjects, it's fine for you to turn in an electronic copy of that certificate instead.

How to turn it in:
Submit the certificate you received or a screenshot showing proof of passing it (.png, .jpg, .pdf file) electronically.

Grading criteria:

If you submit the certification/screenshot, you get full credit. Otherwise no credit.
