Meeting the Challenges of IACUC Administration: Case Studies in Handling Complex Protocol Issues/Situations

Thursday, December 14 | 1:00 PM ET

Many IACUC administrators, members, and staff struggle with protocol questions and what the IACUC should consider in reviewing protocols. During this session, speakers and attendees will work through case studies on protocol review issues and discuss possible ways to handle these complex situations. Time will also be reserved for questions.

Before attending this session, attendees should have a working knowledge of the IACUC and the regulations that provide guidance. Important to the session are well-versed IACUC administrators who can share their experiences with protocol challenges.

In advance of the webinar, we invite attendees to reply to the following question: "In your opinion, what do you think is one of the most challenging regulatory issues or area of ambiguity that your IACUC struggles with at your institution?"

What will I learn to do?

  • Discuss and analyze simulated, problematic scenarios on IACUC protocol reviews
  • Share potential solutions to problems with protocols while maintaining compliance

Who should attend?
ACU/IACUC Administrators, Managers, and Staff

Continuing Education
Course participants who hold the Certified Professional in IACUC Administration (CPIA®) credential may apply 1.5 continuing education credits towards CPIA recertification credit for each course in the IACUC Core Training.
