New NSF requirement: Senior personnel must complete Responsible and Ethical Conduct of Research training
The National Science Foundation’s latest Proposal and Award Policies and Procedures Guide (PAPPG) expands the requirements for Responsible and Ethical Conduct of Research (RCR) training. For NSF proposals submitted after July 31, 2023, all faculty and other senior personnel named on the proposal must complete an approved form of RCR training. Postdocs, grad students and undergraduates are also still required to complete RCR training before conducting NSF-supported research. Visit the Office of Research Compliance website to access the University of South Carolina’s online RCR training, offered via the CITI Program.
