A commonality of accredited organizations is a commitment to enhancing the understanding of research and protection of participants for the community at large. Many accredited organizations go the further step and actively engage the community members as research partners.
When community members become research partners, organizations take on the responsibility to provide training for these partners in the protection of research participants, and to enhance their contributions to the research. The traditional training programs that institutions provide their faculty, staff, and students are not usually compatible with the unique context of community-engaged research.
This webinar will:
- Describe what community-engaged research is and the special considerations IRBs should take into account when reviewing it
- Showcase the CIRTification training program as an example of a program that supports community research partners
- Explore how tools, such as the CIRTification training program, can enhance research collaborations and build public trust
This webinar will be moderated by Tonya Ferraro, AAHRPP's Accreditation Policy Analyst.
