T32 Institutional Training Grants Proposal Development & Submission
BMC and Boston University Medical Campus require that all researchers involved in human research must receive formal training. Depending on the type of research you conduct, there are several levels of required training as listed in this section
The Clinical Trial Office has developed two types of training for Velos.
- VelosCT Basics: This training covers how to use VelosCT to manage study records, participants, and calendar visits. Contact CTO@bmc.org to be assigned a VelosTest training account and obtain the necessary training materials.
- VelosCT|Epic Interface training: This training covers the Velos-Epic interface and the research billing review workflow.
ClinCard is a web-based reloadable debit card program used for research participant payment issuance, tracking, and reporting. Studies must have an active IRB# in order to participate. This section outlines the steps for attending the training and setting up the ClinCard account.
