TRAINING AND EDUCATION
Research Ethics Training Curriculum for Community Representatives
This Research Ethics Training Curriculum for Community Representatives was designed specifically to educate community representatives about their roles and responsibilities so that they have a stronger voice before, during, and after the research process.
If you are an individual learner, you are in the right place, this interactive curriculum will take you page by page through six sections designed to inform you better on your rights and responsibilities as a community representative.
If you are a presenter, please click your browser's back button and choose the Presenter option. Note that we recommend that group presenters work through the self-study version of the curriculum first, to prepare for the group training.
