Step 5: Make The Requested Revisions As Suggested By The Research Ethics Board (If Necessary)
During the Ethics Review Process the REB will often respond to you with suggested revisions or modifications to the research protocol, consent form, recruitment protocol, etc. These revisions will need to be made and submitted for review prior to ethics approval being granted. Revisions must be submitted electronically.
Step 6: Recieve The Certificate Of Approval And Begin The Project
Approval is issued for the protocol and corresponding documents that are described in the application. Changes to any aspect of this protocol (i.e. a change in research method, recruitment of participants, participant population, consenting process, consent form, etc.) require approval from the appropriate REB. An amendment form must be submitted to ethics.office@usask.ca.
