Collaborative Institutional Training Initiative (CITI)

The Collaborative Institutional Training Initiative (CITI) online training program is the official certification program for KSU-affiliated personnel per our Assurance of Compliance. The main courses include biomedical research, social and behavioral research, student research, various animal research courses, responsible conduct in research, conflict of interest, IRB or IACUC or IBC member training, as well as biosafety/biosecurity and export controls.

Which Course Should I Take?

Please follow the instructions found in the document below for information on registering for the appropriate course(s). Please contact researchcomp@kennesaw.edu with any questions you may have. Students whose instructors are requiring CITI for their classes should reach out to their instructor first, since the Office of Research Compliance cannot determine what CITI courses you need.
