Training

Published on: January 26, 2025

Developed by: MRCT Center, in collaboration with the World Health Organization

Description: Ethics and Review of Interventional Clinical Research: Part 2 is now available on the WHO Academy online learning platform.

Across 3 video-based modules, paired with interactive case studies and activities, learners will gain practical, in-depth guidance on providing ethical oversight of health-related research involving human participants. By the end of the course, learners will be able to explain how a Research Ethics Committee (REC) provides oversight from initial review through study closure; articulate why robust Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) are essential to REC operations; describe the roles and responsibilities of other stakeholders involved in clinical research oversight; and identify methods to assess and strengthen REC operations.
