CITI completion certificates must be submitted for all personnel involved in the research protocol and covered by the policy. The educational requirement may be met by completing one of the courses identified below, and certificates of completion must be on record PRIOR to protocol submission for review by the Committee for Protection of Human Subjects (CPHS). Certificates should be sent to the CPHS office either by fax (fax # 713-500-7951) or within IRIS to ensure that the human subjects training database remains accurate and current.

Re-certification is required every three years.

Once the certificate is submitted, you will receive a reminder via e-mail approximately six months, 3 months, and one month prior to its expiration date. For questions regarding the educational requirement, please call the CPHS office at 713-500-7943.
