Policy on Training Requirements for Animal Users 

U.S. Animal Welfare Act Regulations (AWAR) and Public Health Service (PHS) policy require institutions to provide training for all personnel engaged in animal research. This includes Principal Investigators (PIs), technicians, and laboratory personnel.  The CSUEB Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC) is charged, in its review of animal use protocols, with determining that all personnel conducting procedures using animals are appropriately qualified and trained.

All IACUC members, PIs, staff, students, and research personnel who use live vertebrate animals are required to update their animal care and use training at least once every three years to ensure that they remain current on laws, regulations, guidelines, and policies.  Successful completion of the renewal training must be documented in writing, with a copy of such documentation sent to the IACUC.
