Faculty, As noted below, you are required to complete the noted Financial Conflict of Interest training
if you currently have or are expecting a federal grant. I have completed mine and have some suggestions: 1.
Do not wait until the day you need a grant funds released. Though not difficult, these exams take a little time to read and then complete 5-10 question quizzes. Find a few hours in one day, or an hour
a day for several days, to just get it done. 2.
When you get to the page with the reading…just print it out. It wastes a little paper, but some of the questions are just too random to remember and it helps to have the info in front of you (when you
click into the quiz, the reading disappears). 3.
And lastly, contrary to the note in the email instructions…there is no SUBMIT button at the bottom of the quiz page. You just want to pick the Gradebook option and it will record/save your score. Also, the instructions to indicate that you should print and save a copy of your Completion Reports. I would strongly suggest that you also provide me a copy for your file here in the main office.

On Behalf Of Murphy Jr, Paul E Dear Investigators and Administrators,
This a reminder of the Financial Conflict of Interest training required for those of you who have active federal grants or plan to submit proposals to federal agencies. The training needs to be completed by February 23, 2013, unless either of the following events occur, for NIH when we receive a Just-in-Time (JIT) announcement and upon
receiving a federal award. The training will need to be completed before ORA will process the JIT or an award. Below are the links for the training.
