Be sure to check “Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi,” not Texas A&M University. Select the Course you want to take.

At the bottom of the page you can Add a Course.

A list will be presented of courses based on roles that you can select and have added to your Courses.

No. You do not need to email or send in your CITI certificate if you took the course under TAMU-CC CITI. We can look up an individual’s training record directly within CITI training.

TIP: Be sure study personnel names listed in the submission are current and complete. Looking up training records may be hindered if the person is using another name (such as maiden name and recently married) or if the study submission lists their nickname and their CITI profile uses their full legal name.

To clear a training stipulation for a protocol under review, simply state training is complete on the protocol feedback form.

No. Non-TAMU-CC collaborators can include a print-out of their course completion certificate with the IACUC application.

Another option is to affiliate within CITI to Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi. This allows us as admins to verify training directly within CITI.
