AND
Complete the tutorial TCPS 2: CORE (Course on Research Ethics)
The requirements are available here and apply to all members of the research team, including medical staff, students, residents and research staff. If you have completed the tutorial at another institution you do not need to complete it again. Principal Investigators should confirm they have completed it, and that all team members have also done so. If you need help accessing the tutorial or have queries or for further info regarding training requirements, please contact Tracy Wong, Research Quality Assurance Specialist at Tracy.Wong@islandhealth.ca.
