June 25: Demo on CONVERGE IRB Procedures and Extreme Events Research Training Module

[announce at designsafe-ci.org]

Dear Colleagues,


The NHERI-CONVERGE facility, headquartered at the Natural Hazards Center at
the University of Colorado Boulder, is excited to announce the release of a
fourth CONVERGE Training Module that focuses IRB Procedures and Extreme
Events Research. You can register for the free online module here:
<http://converge-training.colorado.edu/courses/cultural-competence/>
https://converge.colorado.edu/training-modules.


This is part of a larger series of online modules designed to accelerate
the training of a diverse hazards and disaster workforce. These
interactive, 30- to 60-minute courses cover a variety of topics that
researchers and practitioners can use to quickly background themselves on
the purpose of the IRB, the application process, and specific IRB
challenges that arise in the context of extreme events research. Upon
successful completion of a 10 question quiz, users receive a certificate
(so these can be useful for classroom assignments as well as other
activities).


To learn more about this new module, please join us Thursday, June 25,
2020, from 12:00-12:30 p.m. Mountain Daylight Time for a live webinar where
our team will provide a demonstration of the CONVERGE IRB Procedures and
Extreme Events Research Training Module. To register for the upcoming
webinar, please visit:

You can sign up for free resources and additional updates at the CONVERGE
website at: https://converge.colorado.edu/signup. Thank you!
