Conclusion

Congratulations! You have completed the human research ethics for social/behavior sciences training course. If you completed all quizzes with high enough marks, you will be awarded a certificate of completion.

Remember it is important to be familiar with federal regulations governing human research and any changes made to it. This course is not intended as a “lifetime certification” and should not be substituted for continuing education of researchers. Federal regulation is the highest authority in research ethics and in the event of it conflicting with the provisions of any institution or course (including this one), federal regulation takes priority.

Maintain contact with your IRB and research institute for any additional regulations on research unique to each institution.
