Following an announcement about the changes to the University’s ethics review process last month, the short course has been developed and is ready to access on Learn.

The training has been split into two parts:

1)      Course 1: Introduction to Ethics – Mandatory training for all academic staff 

2)      Course 2: Engaging with the University’s Ethics Review Process – Additional training for staff supervising undergraduate and postgraduate projects involving human participants.

Access the training now.
