In order to maintain the highest standards in areas of research integrity, the Office of the Vice President for Research has created an Education and Training Program to support federal guidelines and policies established by Georgia State University.

University research Services and Administration is guided by the policies set forth by the Provost, VP for Research, and the University Senate in the development of training and education of the GSU community.

It is the responsibility of the Office of Research to have readily available proper documentation to graduate students, faculty members or administrative staff. This would educate and/or clarify any questions that arise in the day-to-day practice. The transfer of information can also deter from future issues that may arise or be a predictor for future concerns.

In order to optimize the validity of the programs, an evaluation system has been established as a basis for measurement of learning and quality improvement.

A multifaceted approach to promote integrity along with activities that help establish an internal climate of responsible conduct will be the driving factor for this program.

Our goal is to reach "Excellence in Education and Training ".
