CITI Training and Enrollment 

CITI Training for New Employees

You will need to go to the CITI website and create a user ID and password. The system will then ask you to affiliate with an institution. It is very important that you choose Wake Forest School of Medicine. If you choose Wake Forest University, that is the Reynolda Campus which requires different modules and you will have to re-do our training. Once you have chosen WFSM as your affiliation, you will be asked to select your curriculum. 

There are 5 questions: 

  • Answer Biomedical Investigators for question 1. 
  • If you have completed CITI before, choose Biomedical Investigators for question 2. If you have not previously completed CITI, choose that option for question 2. 
  • Leave questions 3 and 4 blank and answer “No” for question 5 since they are all for optional courses.

Once you have completed the course, the CITI site will email the IRB and they will update your eIRB account.

Once logged in, please confirm on your main menu page under “Wake Forest School of Medicine Courses” that you are enrolled for “Biomedical Investigators”. You will either be completing the Basic Course or the Refresher Course depending on which course you previously completed.
