Learn How to Apply the Common Rule with the Experts at OHRP
The HHS Office for Human Research Protections (OHRP) will be co-hosting two all-day in-person interactive workshops on applying the Common Rule this fall. These intermediate level workshops aim to help participants consolidate their knowledge and apply relevant ethical principles and the HHS regulations for human research protection with confidence.
These RCFs are perfect whether you are relatively new to the world of human research protection or need a refresher.
If you work for a small or medium-sized research institution that does not have ready access to training, this is a great opportunity to get some solid advice on regulatory compliance from OHRP staff and ask all the questions you have always wanted to ask about protecting human participants in research.
Register now! Don’t forget that these will be great opportunities to meet up with all your colleagues who are working remotely and whom you haven’t seen for a while!
