All new *STANFORD investigators
who use human subjects in their research activities will be required
to take CITI initial training. Additionally, a CITI refresher
course is required for all investigators who have not taken the
previously required Human Subjects Tutorial within the last two
years (Investigators include Protocol Directors and all research
staff listed on the protocol application form).
*
The five STANFORD affiliated organizations are:
• Stanford University
• Stanford Hospital and Clinics (SHC)
• Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital at
Stanford (LPCH)
• Veterans Affairs Palo Alto Health Care System
(VAPAHCS)
• Palo Alto Institute for Research and Education
(PAIRE)
VAPAHCS investgators
(which includes Stanford investigators who do research at the
VA) are required to take the training annually; all other Stanford
investigators will take the Stanford required training every 2
years.
Third party (subcontract)
research personnel or consultants must comply with this education
requirement as well. They may satisfy this requirement at their home
institutions, provided that Stanford is assured of completion of the
necessary training. A letter, certificate, or email notification by a
representative from the home institution will satisfy this requirement. If
you have any questions regarding the CITI Training, please contact the IRB
Education Specialist at IRBEducation@Stanford.edu.
