“…Development of human subjects protection training that is culturally adapted is feasible, valuable, and a needed element of community-engaged research (4,7,24,25). A limitation of our training program was that we did not conduct an evaluation of the modules with the research staff who completed the training.…”

Background Non-academic members of research teams, such as community members, can perceive traditional human subjects protection training as lacking in cultural relevance. We present a case exemplar of the development of a human subjects protection training for research staff with limited English proficiency and/or no or limited research experience. Methods Seven modules were adapted for language, cultural examples, etc., from the standard Collaborative Institutional Training Initiative (CITI) human subjects protection training. Non-academic research staff completed a day-long training in human subjects protection (6 modules) and our research protocol (1 module). We assessed comprehension of content with PowerPoint slides and module quizzes. Results All participants successfully passed each module quiz with ≥ 80% correct. Questions answered incorrectly were discussed before proceeding to the next module. Discussion To meet the increasing demand for collaborative community-engaged research with underserved minority populations, human subjects protection training protocols can be adapted successfully to reflect real-world situations and provide culturally relevant materials to help non-academic research staff better understand the importance and necessity of research ethics.
