How are Global Health Network Training Courses produced?

Our courses are developed from material donated by respected research centres and/or experienced researchers. To ensure the high quality of the content, peer review is usually undertaken by qualified and respected individuals from a relevant field. The reviewers are sourced from the network of collaborators throughout The Global Health Network. Authors and reviewers are always clearly acknowledged on the course, and collaborating organisations and institutions have their logos displayed on the course overview page and on the course certificate. For further information, or if you have training material that you feel would make a good training course on our site, please contact training@theglobalhealthnetwork.org

Once you have scored 80% or more in a course quiz, you are issued with a certificate, which can be found at the top right of the Quiz Results page.

  

The certificate is also automatically stored on your profile page, so once you are logged in to the site, please check your profile page, which can be found in the menu at the top right of the page.

I have passed the Research Ethics Training, why can't I get my certificate?

Due to a glitch in our system (which we are currently working to fix), all the quizzes must be taken in order. We recommend reading a module and taking the corresponding quiz straight after, and not moving on to another module and quiz until you have passed. If you are still having trouble, please email us at training@theglobalhealthnetwork.org

We are a study group with limited access to computers. Can we create one account on the training centre and use this for ICH GCP certification?

To ensure that our certificates have academic rigour, we can only issue them to a named individual who has passed the quiz. We recommend each person in your study group creates their own account and uses this to take the ICH GCP (or any other) course. Once they have finished a session, they can log out so that the next person can log in using their own credentials and take the quiz. This way, everyone in your study group will have their own name on the certificate.

What is the expiry date for the ICH GCP course? How long is it valid for?

We recommend retaking the course every 2 years. However, you can retake it to refresh your memory or if there is an update before this time. If the course is updated at any time, we will email you to let you know.

How can I correct my name on my certificate?

If you have made a genuine error when entering your name upon registration and would like to amend this, please contact training@theglobalhealthnetwork.org with your correct full name and the email address you have registered with. We will check the full name matches your registered email address and will correct this for you. You will only be allowed one correction on your account. Any further changes will be looked at on a case by case basis. Please do not email us more than once with a request for a name correction; we process each request daily and sending multiple requests will not mean your name is corrected quicker. Please allow 3-4 weeks for your name correction to be processed.

How do I delete my account?
