Complying With RCR Training Requirements

In an effort to demonstrate their continued commitment to ethics instruction, the NSF and NIH have mandated that institutions develop a plan for Responsible Conduct of Research (RCR) instruction.

This means that you must provide training on the responsible and ethical conduct of research to undergraduate students, graduate students and postdoctoral researchers participating in the proposed research project.

This special report has been designed to help you better understand — and make the most of — your efforts to demonstrate your continued commitment to ethics instruction as required by the NSF and NIH.

Must-have, step-by-step expert guidance includes:

• RCR Regs and What They Mean for Your Institution (page 5)
• How to Design RCR Education and Training (page 8)
• Case Study: RCR Training Development at the CHOP (page 13)
• FAQs on Responsible Conduct of Research (page 14)
