CITI Program administrators are typically the decision-makers at institutions regarding course additions. Administrators’ roles vary across institutions but they often include Animal Care and Use Program or IACUC administrators, IACUC chairs, administrators in research integrity offices, etc. If you are interested in the course but unsure who to speak to at their institution about getting the course added, you can reach out to sales@citiprogram.org.

The annual subscription can be cancelled at any time.

No, there is a not a limit on the number of individuals per institution that can take the course. However, some organizations have multiple “sites.” The definition of a “site” is: A facility owned and/or operated by or actively affiliated with a subscribing organization where 30 or more employees, agents, or students of the organization will complete CITI Program courses in a given year. Large organizations with a high learner volume, virtual learner groups, healthcare systems, science fair organizations, and other complex organizations may be considered equivalent to multiple sites.

Stay tuned! We will be hosting a webinar in the summer of 2025 in partnership with CITI Program to preview more details about the content of the course, how the course subscription works, and we will answer any additional questions you may have!
