About this Workstream

The Training & Policy workstream strengthens the university’s approach to research security through clear policies, practical guidance, and coordinated training. Its work helps ensure that researchers and research support personnel understand their responsibilities and have the knowledge and resources needed to conduct research securely and responsibly.

Clear expectations and consistent education help reduce uncertainty, promote responsible research practices, and support a strong culture of compliance across the research enterprise. As part of RSSI, this workstream helps create a shared understanding of research security expectations while supporting research excellence across the university.
