NIH Orientation
If you are a new NIH staff member, you are required to complete the
NIH Online Orientation within 3 weeks of your arrival. A copy of your certificate
of completion should be printed and submitted to your lab manager or secretary.
Safety Training
As a new employee (non-administrative) you are required to attend the New Employee
Safety Orientation (NEO) where you will receive required information. You will also
receive a safety manual and a safety checklist. The checklist is to be returned to EHS
within 2 weeks of your start date.
Orientations are held every other Tuesday from 9:00 am to 4:00 pm in the
building 426 Conference room.
Please check the training matrix
to see which trainings are required for your position. If you are uncertain, please
check with your supervisor or the Safety Office at 301-846-1451.
If you will be working with blood borne pathogens, you are also required to attend
the afternoon session of the NEO.
Individuals that will be manipulating Radioactive Materials at the FNL and ATRF
must first become authorized to do so. If you are unaware if you should have this
training, please see your supervisor for guidance. To become authorized, one must
take the following steps:
Read and sign the Protocol Specific Training Document (Working Safely with Radioactive
Materials) for the Radiation Program. Have the Radiation Program Principal Investigator
sign your Training and Experience form and forward it along with a copy of the signature
sheet, from the Protocol Specific Training Document, to the Radiation Safety Office.
Once your paperwork has been received and your training verified, you will be contacted
by Radiation Safety to give a baseline urine bioassay sample and thyroid scan (if
requesting to use iodine). After you are approved, the program PI will receive a
confirmatory memo listing any further requirements or restrictions and you will
receive a dosimeter (if applicable).
Ethics
All NIH employees are required to complete
New Employee Ethics Orientation. At the end of the training, view and print
the certificate and provide a copy to your lab manager or secretary. Contractors
and non-FTEs (CRTAs, Special Volunteers/Guest Researchers, Visiting Fellows) are
exempt from this requirement, but are welcome to take the training if they so desire.
If you are a new NIH scientific staff member, you are required to complete
NIH Research Ethics Training within 60 days of your arrival.
Summer Students are required to take the NCI-Frederick Scientific
