Health Privacy Orientation for Researchers

Under Manitoba's Personal Health Information Act (PHIA), ¶¡ÏãÔ°AV researchers who work with personal health information (PHI) must receive training on health privacy protection. This training is available through Nexus. Please contact da.elves@uwinnipeg.ca to register. A pledge of confidentiality must also be signed. Completion of training and a pledge will also be required in advance of ethics and privacy approval under the forthcoming RITHIM/CHIPER initiative for research projects involving PHI.

This page replicates the content (but not the quiz) of the ¶¡ÏãÔ°AV Nexus course "Health Privacy Orientation for Researchers". It is presented here for reference/review purposes. In recognition that researchers involved in human participatory research must also complete the TCPS 2: CORE tutorial, Module 5 of which is dedicated to issues of privacy and confidentiality in research, this course is shorter than the health privacy course available to non-researchers.

The course contains two modules:
