To-do list for undergrad RAs before they can be cleared to run studies within the lab.

CITI Training

In order to conduct any research study, any potential researcher must first complete CITI training. CITI stands for Collaborative Institutional Training Initiative and is a training program designed to give researchers the tools and information needed to conduct research. In order to conduct studies, the basic course for Group 2(Social/behavioral research investigators and key personnel) must be completed.

In order to complete CITI training, visit the CITI website (https://www.citiprogram.org/), click on "Register," enter "University of Nebraska - Lincoln" under search for organisation affiliation, and follow the rest of the registration steps. Once logged in to your account, add the course Group 2 Social / Behavioral Research Investigators and Key Personnel. You must complete all of the required modules to get this certificate.

Once you have completed all required modules, you will get a completion report, which can be saved as a PDF file. Send a copy of this PDF to either Dr. Johnson or the lab manager, so they can in turn forward it to the appropriate people to get you approved to run studies.


Shared calendar access

The RAP Lab is organized on a shared Google account calendar. Once RAs are established and running studies mostly independently, they will be given access to the RAP Lab calendar. The calendar has 5 sub-calendars:

Establish schedule
