Howdy,

Please join us for our second, nationwide virtual IACUC 101 Plus program.

IACUC 101™: “Plus” virtual program is 2 half days of didactic and interactive educational opportunities for both new and seasoned IACUC members, IACUC affiliates and others who contribute to their institution’s animal care and use program. The "Plus" portion of our program includes an additional Wildlife module and updates from USDA, OLAW and AAALAC. This program is spread out over 2 days via Zoom. Didactic sessions address institutional responsibilities, IACUC charges, relevant informational resources, animal welfare laws, regulations and policies, and best practices. Students also are challenged to consider, deliberate, and develop action plans for a variety of potential IACUC scenarios. The course includes Q&A sessions with representatives from USDA and OLAW. This course will not be recorded so take good notes on the presentation pdfs that will be provided to you the day of the course.

A Zoom link will be provided the day before the course
