FCOI training requirements, as specified under federal regulations and UConn policy, will be complete once an investigator has submitted a financial disclosure form within the UConn InfoEd External Interests system.

All PHS-funded and DOE-funded investigators must complete the UConn FCOI training pursuant to PHS regulations 42 CFR 50.604(b)(1-3), DOE Interim COI policy, and institutional policy prior to engaging in PHS or DOE-funded research and at least every four (4) years thereafter as well as under the following circumstances (in the timeframes noted in parentheses):

1. When the University’s FCOI policy changes such that investigator requirements are affected (within 60 days).
2. When an investigator is new to the University (prior to engaging in PHS or DOE-funded research).
3. When the University finds that an investigator is not in compliance with the Policy or a management plan, as applicable.
