Research Security Training

The DOE, NIH and NSF have published research security training requirements. Learn more 禄

The condensed single-module Research Security Training (Combined) (ID 21604) course satisfies the current requirement for federal agencies (see below).

The 91视频 provides Research Security Training through CITI to meet federal requirements. The requirement to complete research security training will be incorporated into all agency proposal/award requirements in calendar year 2025. Specific dates will be provided and updated on a per-agency basis and are not known at this time.

Per the "CHIPS and Science Act of 2022," senior/key personnel are required to take the training within one year of a research and development (R&D) application. Institutions/organizations will need to certify annually that these individuals have completed research security training that meets the guidelines in the act. 

There are two options, available through CITI, to meet the requirements:

  • Option 1: Research Security Training (Combined) (ID 21604)
  • Option 2: Research Security Training (4 modules: ID 21304, ID 21305, ID 21306, and ID 21307)

We strongly encourage researchers to take the Research Security Training (Combined) course as soon as possible through CITI  to allow for a permanent record of completion.

Refresher Course

This new SECURE Center鈥檚 Annual/Refresher Training Module course, Research Security Training (Combined) Refresher, reinforces key concepts with updated case studies and information based on researchers鈥� questions. The refresher course takes 30 minutes or less to complete and is designed to meet the CHIPS and Science Act requirements. UH accepts this course as the required annual refresher. The course is available in CITI. See below on how to add a course.

Adding Courses in CITI

Add these courses to your CITI training by visiting the . Once logged in, click on 鈥淰iew Courses鈥� that are available to the University of Houston. Go to the bottom of the page that lists the courses and click 鈥淎dd a Course鈥� in the 鈥淟earner Tools for 91视频鈥� box. Scroll down to Question 11 (鈥淩esearch Security鈥�) and select the courses you want to add.

In addition to the two options mentioned earlier, the following courses are available:

  • Research Security Advanced Refresher (8 modules)
  • Undue Foreign Influence: Risks and Mitigations (4 modules)

The Research Security Training course (4 modules) was developed by the National Science Foundation as part of its Research Security Training program. The Research Security Training (Combined) was developed by the NSF SECURE Center, and will eventually replace the four modules of the Research Security Training.
