To create an account in the Collaborative Institutional Training Initiative (CITI) Program, on the citiprogram.org home page, click on the Register button in the upper right. Click on “Log in through my Organization” at the top of the page. Enter “UConn – Storrs and Regional Campuses” in the search box. Then click “Continue to SSO Login/instructions.” The CITI Single Sign-on (SSO) will use your UConn NetID and password for your account. (The system will ask you if there is another CITI account you would like to associate with your NetID account, and this option can be used to merge an old account with your new SSO account.) Follow the prompts to create a new account.

Once you are logged in to citiprogram.org using your NetID and under your “UConn – Storrs and Regional Campuses” affiliation, select “add a course” at the bottom of the screen. On the next screen, select “I would like to review the Responsible Conduct of Research (RCR) courses.”

 

Next, choose “Responsible Conduct of Research Training for NSF/USDA-NIFA.”

The next page that appears should have a message in green at the top that says: “You are now enrolled in the course(s) you selected.” Then scroll down the page to click “start now” next to the RCR course.

A copy of your Completion Report will be accessible to you and the RCR Program at any time from the CITI Program.
