Onboarding Checklist

Things they have to do:

• On our wiki's "new members" page, they will be directed to complete the following tasks:

  1. Complete CITI training

     • If they have previously completed CITI training at another institution...

       • They will need to log onto the CITI website, affiliate with Brown University, complete Group 4 training, then email their training credentials to the lab manager

       • The lab manager will then make a copy for record-keeping, and also forward the credentials to irb@brown.edu

     • If they have never completed CITI training before...

       • They will need to complete Group 1 (for Social-Behavioral-Educational Researchers), and preferably complete the elective modules entitled "Internet-Based Research" as well as "Students in Research." No other training is required!

       • They will then need to email their training credentials to the lab manager, who will make a copy for record-keeping (no need to forward to IRB; they will get a copy directly from CITI)

  2. Complete Conflict of Interest (COI) form
