NIFA RCR Training Requirements

Following sections 2, 3, and 8 of 2 CFR Part 422, awardees of USDA-funded extramural research must have adequate RCR training. The training should ", at a minimum, emphasize three key areas of research ethics: authorship and plagiarism, data and research integration, and reporting misconduct."

The Emory RCR Online training in Brainier or CITI RCR module will meet this requirement.
