  • Learn how to implement the NIH single IRB policy;
  • Understand the expectations for the NIH single IRB policy;
  • Become familiar with the process to request exceptions to the policy; and
  • Understand the responsibilities of the single IRB, local IRB, the investigator, and the institutions in implementing the NIH single IRB policy.
