HHS Required COI Training

Online COI Training (TrojanLearn)

All researchers who propose or conduct research sponsored by the Department of Health and Human Services (NIH, CDC, HRSA) must complete an HHS-required training at least once every four years regarding conflicts of interest in research.  USC offers online training on the requirements of federal regulations and USC policy, as well as on diSClose, USC’s online disclosure system.  Both the initial training requirement and the subsequent refresher training requirement must be completed in TrojanLearn.
