Do I need to complete Institutional Review Board, IRB, training for the DNP program?
You will need to complete an IRB application for your scholarly practice project. This requires that you complete IRB training. Include your evidence of IRB training with your IRB application to your advisor. If you have not completed initial IRB training and the required yearly update, you may do so at UAB. Log on to the main UAB Web site, find the Research tab, and click on Administration. From there, click on Institutional Review Board for Human Use (IRB), and then click on training. Chose Initial or Continuing. You will find several choices listed; any of these will meet the requirement for IRB training. The initial training takes time to complete, so this is something you might want to do between semesters.
