PNWU requires completion of an appropriate level of Human Subjects Research (HSR) training before investigators may conduct research with human participants. This training is provided by the Collaborative Institutional Training Initiative (CITI). Most certificates are valid for four years from the date of certification and must remain current throughout the period of the study.
