Personnel listed on VA research studies who are PIs or are identifying, recruiting, consenting, or interacting with subjects must complete the VA Human Subjects Protection course in order to satisfy VA human subjects training requirements. Personnel listed on VA research studies who are not involved in any of those roles can complete either the VA Human Subjects Protection Course or the UW Human Subjects Protections Course (see “UW-Madison Personnel” page for information on this training).

To access the VA Human Subjects Protection course, you must affiliate with “Madison VA Hospital – 607” within your CITI account that was created through the UW CITI Portal. If you completed the VA Human Subjects Protection Course outside the UW CITI Portal, see Instructions for Linking Previous CITI Training.
