CITI is an online course aimed at educating on appropriate research practices. CU听Boulder requires all researchers complete and maintain training with a minimum score of 80/100. The CITI requirement applies to all research regardless of review categories.听

CITI training is valid for 3 years after completion.听After ever three years you must complete a refresher course.听You will receive a reminder from CITI every 90, 30, and 7 days prior to training expiration to complete the refresher course.听You will receive one final reminder one day after your certification expires.听It is your responsibility to keep your CITI training current.听

All research submissions will be returned without review if any key personnel听(e.g. principal investigator, co-investigators, faculty advisor, etc.)听on a study does not have a valid training status.听

All researchers involved with a protocol being reviewed by the IRB will need to complete the Social Behavioral Research Investigators and Key Personnel or Biomedical Research Investigators and Key Personnel course as appropriate for your research. The Responsible Conduct of Research (RCR) course is separate from the human research courses and does not satisify IRB CITI requirements.
