The Office of Research Compliance Assessment and the Office of Research Education and Training invite you to participate in the "Research Compliance Educational Series." The objective of the series is to raise and maintain employee knowledge and awareness of research compliance in human subject research. Four classes will be offered on the Coral Gables campus throughout the fall. Principal investigators, research nurses, clinical coordinators, study team members and anyone else involved in human subject or clinical research are strongly encouraged to attend. Participants will receive a certificate after completion of each class, and nurses can earn continuing education credits.
