Small, Medium, or Large? Customizing IRB and IACUC Member Training for Stability and Engagement is designed to provide engaging and adaptable training, customized to fit your institution’s research volume, type, and budget. Whether you're overseeing a large-scale research operation or managing a smaller group, this session offers flexible options that enhance knowledge continuity and compliance in research oversight. This webinar is structured to be both thought-provoking and informative, ensuring that training is not only engaging but also impactful. By leveraging free technologies, institutional licenses, and collaborative learning models, we help build a strong foundational knowledge base while minimizing repetitive content. Whether you opt for straightforward virtual recordings or more complex live sessions, our goal is to create a training experience that fosters meaningful discussion and deepens understanding of critical research protections. Institutions like the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill IRB and Mississippi State University IACUC have successfully implemented similar training models, using a combination of accessible technologies and in-depth training sessions to promote compliance and unify their teams around a shared mission of research protection. Join us for this webinar to discover how these best practices can be applied to your own institution’s IRB and IACUC programs. Strengthen your team’s knowledge, improve research oversight, and ensure your institution remains at the forefront of ethical research protection.
