Why are my CITI training courses not showing up in IRB Manager?

Emails don鈥檛 match

Step 1: Check your Primary Preferred Email in CITI

CITI training is matched to you via email address. Often, the email in CITI does not match the one in IRB Manager.

The email that CITI uses can be found in your main profile under the Preferred Email. NOTE: This is NOT the email used in your Affiliation record with UT, but the one from your main profile.

Step 2: Check your IRB Manager Email

The email address that IRB Manager uses can be found by looking at your settings. Click the personalized link in the upper left corner of IRB Manager.聽

Then click 鈥淢y Profile鈥� to see the email address used by IRB Manager (typically your Utoledo email.)

If the email addresses match EXACTLY, then move on to the next possibility.聽 If they do not, contact an IRB staff member and ask them to update the CITI Alternate address in your IRB Manager profile to match your preferred CITI email address.聽 聽Alternatively, you can update your preferred email on CITI to match your UT email to achieve the same result.

IMPORTANT NOTE: IRB Manager DOES NOT consider firstname.lastname@utoledo.edu to be the same as firstname.lastname@rockets.utoledo.edu.聽 The match is case-insensitive, but does not allow for UT aliases.聽 Also, changes made today will not match until the next CITI download at 7AM.

Timing

CITI training is matched every morning Sunday to Saturday at 7AM.聽

If you took the course today, it will appear tomorrow.聽 Likewise, if you had your CITI Alternate Email address updated today, the match will occur tomorrow morning.聽 If you logged in for the first time today, your training will match tomorrow morning.

Wrong courses

It is unfortunately common that researchers inadvertently take the wrong course. The most common mistake is taking an RCR (Responsible Conduct of Research) course instead of the IRB courses. The RCR courses do not meet the training requirements for conducting human subjects research.

There are two courses that will meet training requirements to conduct human subjects research.聽 They are named 鈥淏iomedical Researchers & Students鈥� and 鈥淪ocial-Behavioral-Educational Researchers and Students鈥�. If you plan to submit ONLY to the Social, Behavioral and Educational (SBE) Board, you should take the 鈥淪ocial-Behavioral-Educational Researchers and Students鈥� course. However, if you suspect your project may end up with the Biomedical board or that you might do Biomedical research in the future, you should take the 鈥淏iomedical Researchers & Students鈥� as it also meets the training requirements for the SBE board.聽 However, note that the REVERSE is not true. Taking the SBE course will NOT qualify you to do Biomedical Human Subjects Research.

Also note, both courses have a 鈥淏asic鈥� and 鈥淩efresher鈥� option.聽 If you have not yet taken the 鈥淏asic鈥� course, start there.聽

If in doubt about what course to take, contact your HRPP office staff member and they will be able to assist you.

Course was taken at another institution and not populated when you affiliated with 淫妻社

If you took your IRB training at another institution and then affiliated with 淫妻社, you will need complete the following steps to insure proper credit for the training.聽

Step 1: Add the appropriate CITI IRB training to your account

You will need to add the BASIC level of either "Biomedical Researchers & Students"聽 or聽 "Social-Behavioral-Educational聽 Researchers & Students"聽 course to your account.

Step 2: Complete any necessary modules required by 淫妻社

Not all IRB training is the same between institutions. Often when training is transferred, there are a few modules that need to be completed to comply with 淫妻社 HRPP training requirements. If you have difficulty adding the required courses or you are not sure what you need to take, you may contact the HRPP office or the 淫妻社 CITI Administrator聽for assistance.
