What do I/my research team need to be added to an IACUC protocol?

To be added to a protocol involving animals:

1. Complete your Novelution profile.  You will receive an email from the Novelution system when your PI / advisor adds you to the protocol, if you do not already have a Novelution profile. This is where all your training documentation is stored, so it’s important to complete this step first.
2. Complete the Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) process.  This process can take up to 21 days, so plan accordingly.
3. Complete a training log reflecting you are trained and proficient in all responsibilities listed for you in the Responsibilities portion of the Research Team Panel of the protocol.
4. Complete general CITI training:
   1. If working with laboratory mice or rats, complete the Rodent Research Course.
   2. If working with live vertebrates (non-wildlife, non-rodent), complete the Working with the IACUC Course.
   3. If working with live vertebrate wildlife animals, complete the Wildlife Research Course.
   4. If working in extension and may use live vertebrate animals for demonstration/exhibition, complete the Extension Agents course.
5. Complete species-specific CITI training, ex.:
   1. Working with Mice in Research Settings
   2. Working with Genetically Modified Mice in Research Settings
   3. Working with Cattle Amphibians in Research Settings
   4. Working with Cattle in Agricultural Research Settings
   5. Working with Sheep and Goats in Research Settings

             Etc. (these are only a few examples)
