Webinars

Research Ethics offers virtual meetings for EthOS communication and training purposes. While we encourage and prefer live attendance, recorded replay links are also available. If you have any questions about these Webinars, including any difficulties registering or accessing the links, contact RAIMSsupport@uoguelph.ca.

Join the Ethics Education & Compliance Advisor, Donna Drohan, for an in-depth demonstration of how researchers use EthOS to submit and manage their human participant research study protocols. The 90 minute session covers: 

  • How to access EthOS
  • Basic navigation, document management, and system tips
  • Submitting a main form application 
  • Requesting signatures and signing applications
  • Responding to modification requests
  • Post-approval events

The session is not intended to address ethics-related compliance guidelines or your individual application specifics.  (Our weekly Brown Bag drop-ins, however, are perfect for this!)  

EthOS 101 is open to all University of Guelph and University of Guelph-Humber researchers and any of their external collaborating peers. 

Upcoming Live EthOS 101 Sessions
