If the NIH tutorial “Protecting Human Research Participants” is taken to meet the education requirement, will NIH provide copies of the certificate of completion?
No. After completing the training module, the trainee may print out a certificate of completion that may be provided as documentation of compliance with the requirement. Should another copy of the certificate be required, the trainee may log in to the tutorial at any time to print the certificate associated with his or her account. NIH does not provide additional copies of the certificate. • How often do investigators involved in the design and conduct of human subjects research need to complete the education? The NIH policy is silent on the frequency of education. The intent of the education requirement is for investigators to keep abreast of development in human subjects protection. We believe that institutions and investigators are in the best position to determine when additional education is warranted. Also see the NIH Guide Notice of June 5, 2000, September 5, 2001 and February 29, 2008 for additional information on the Requirement for Education on the Protection of Human Subject
