In Our Learner’s Words

Julie S.

These courses were easy to access and succinct, which made a review of the Belmont Report key tenets, as well as the review of differences between practice and research, a focused and time efficient endeavor.

Myrene M.

Associate Faculty

The course materials are brief and clear. Such brevity and clarity are perfect for those who are busy with other duties at work and provide for a more friendly and less overwhelming task. I love the quizzes because I can learn from my mistakes. After submitting the quiz, the correct and wrong answers are explained. This reinforces learning.

The RCR Basic course is explicitly explained and easy to understand.

This course touches on realistic examples that may potentially occur in the research field. Undergoing this course allows us to have a better idea of the regulations and regulatory bodies involved in research.

John Paul O.

The information is really detailed and beneficial.

Vicki S.

Gerontology Specialist

Excellent information in all of the modules. Some information was relatively new to me, and other information reinforced knowledge I already had. I liked the variety of techniques used, and especially, in most of the modules, they started with videos setting the stage for what was to come. Actually, I felt that this was one of the best learning experiences I have had via a written internet course. I also liked that different voices were used in the modules.

The site is immensely improved over when I first used it around 2008. You’ve done a great job of making it easier to navigate and of creating really useful quiz questions. I think the scenarios do a very good job of establishing whether people really understand how to apply the information.
