Responsible Conduct of Research (RCR) Microcredential Series

Announcing the launch of the Responsible Conduct of Research (RCR) Microcredential Series

These new in-person discussion-based workshops are required for any individual receiving funding from the National Institutes of Health (NIH), including undergraduate students, graduate students, staff, postdocs, and faculty. In order to meet NIH’s requirements for in-person RCR training, these workshops have been established as a series of microcredentials (also called “badges”) that lead to an overarching RCR “mega” credential.  It should be noted that UMBC requires all graduate students completing a master’s thesis or doctoral degree, along with all postdoctoral research associates, to complete RCR training through either CITI or the new in-person RCR Microcredential Series.

Open to all faculty, staff, undergraduate, and graduate students. While required of any individual receiving funding from NIH, anyone (faculty, staff, undergraduate or graduate student, postdoctoral research associate) can attend the in-person workshops and earn the microcredentials/badges.

How do I earn the microcredential? Each workshop session is associated with a topic-specific RCR microcredential, so participants earn a “badge” for each session attended. After attending all required sessions, an overarching RCR credential will be awarded. Attendance and active participation are required to receive a microcredential for each workshop (participants must scan the QR code provided at the end of the workshop using their phone). This process ensures full participation. After completing a workshop, participants will receive their microcredential/badge specific to that session. Once all workshops in the series have been completed, participants will be awarded certification of completion of RCR training, a “mega” credential signifying that they have fully met the NIH’s RCR training requirements.

Schedule: See the detailed schedule of sessions here: https://ethics.umbc.edu/responsible-conduct-of-research/

How do I sign up? You must sign up for each individual session by clicking the links under each session here, and then choosing “Going in Person.”

Facilitator: This RCR series is being facilitated by Daniel G. Jenkins, an applied ethics expert who is an instructor in the Philosophy Department. Each workshop session will be co-taught by an additional faculty member or staff with subject matter expertise. Jenkins has taught a range of applied ethics courses, including PHIL/PBHL 358: Bioethics, PHIL 251: Ethical Issues in Science and Engineering, and, since 2020, PHIL 359: Ethics and Integrity in Scientific Research for undergraduate students in STEM BUILD. From a previous career in science, which began while an undergraduate at UMBC, he gained experience in bench science and animal husbandry. He has co-authorships in the Journal of Radiation Research, Atherosclerosis, and the Journal of Experimental Medicine. He received BA’s in Philosophy and Psychology, a certificate in Biopsychology, and an MA in Applied and Professional Ethics from UMBC. He has taught in the Department of Philosophy since 2015.

The UMBC Cyber Defense Lab presents

The Code of Honor: Embracing Ethics in Cybersecurity

Dr. Paul J. Maurer, President & CEO, Montreat College

12-1pm EDT, Friday, 20 September 2024 via WebEx 

The Code of Honor is a thoughtfully constructed program for building best practices in the tech industry with a specific focus on cybersecurity. Using illustrations from popular culture and real-life case studies that provide a glimpse into the complexities of the world of cybersecurity, this comprehensive learning tool helps students, professionals, and business leaders navigate ethical challenges and enhance their decision-making processes as they face the great economic and security threat of our age. The Code of Honor requires that we focus on and teach our students to be mindful of fundamental ideals (respect, protect, and serve others), be accountable, learn from mistakes, work collaboratively, and practice discipline and self-control.

  • Professional Responsibility: Cybersecurity professionals hold a great deal of power and enormous levels of responsibility in the workplace and the broader economy.
  • Foundational Principles: Humans with a solid ethical framework and a grounding in character must direct the technology.
  • Human-Centered Approach:The value and dignity of humanity are the foundations of the Cybersecurity Code of Honor.
  • Service and Protection: When you work in cybersecurity, you are truly embracing a higher calling to serve and protect organizations and users.
  • Teamwork: We need other people to be successful, which begins with a healthy level of self-awareness, humility, and relationship-building.
  • Commitment to Integrity:Our jobs matter, our work is valuable, and our industry’s integrity is important and worth protecting. It is as much about our integrity as it is about the dignity we see in the people who place their trust in us.

Dr. Paul J. Maureris the president of Montreat College and is currently the fourth longest-serving president among the 36 independent colleges and universities in North Carolina.

The book was co-authored with Ed Skoudis, one of the most recognized and respected cybersecurity experts in the United States. He earned his Ph.D. in political science from Claremont Graduate University, where he was an H. B. Earhart Fellow and a John M. Olin Fellow. He earned his B.A. from the University of Cincinnati, where he was co-captain of the men’s soccer team and a local Young Life leader. He earned his Master of Divinity from Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary.

Celebration, Upcoming Events, & More!

During National Hispanic Heritage Month (September 15 to October 15) we recognize the contributions made and the important presence of Hispanic and Latine/x Americans to the United States and celebrate their heritage and culture. Throughout this time, i3b, UMBC and the country celebrates the important contributions, heritage, and culture of all Hispanics and Latine/x in the United States. 

Our Hispanic and Latine/x community has profoundly and positively influenced our country through their strong commitment to family, faith, hard work, and service. They have enhanced and shaped our national character with centuries-old traditions that reflect the multiethnic and multicultural customs of their community.

So why does Hispanic Heritage Month start in the middle of September and end in Mid-October?

Hispanic Heritage Month, whose roots go back to 1968, begins each year on September 15, the anniversary of independence of five Latin American countries: Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, and Nicaragua. Mexico, Chile and Belize also celebrate their independence days during this period and Columbus Day (Día de la Raza) is October 12.

The term Hispanic, refers to the racially and ethnically group of folkswho are from hispanophone (Spanish Speaking) countries that were historically colonized by Spain. This term is inclusive to those who also from Spanish origin. The term Latino however excludes Spain, but includes non-Spanish speaking Latin American countries such as Belize, Brazil, Guyana, and Haiti. Please note that even if folks may have ethnic roots from Latin America, they may identify as either, neither or both Hispanic and/or Latino/e/x.

Share in this special annual tribute by learning and celebrating the generations of Hispanic and Latine/x Americans who have positively influenced and enriched our nation and society.

We are excited to share about events The Mosaic is sponsoring/co-sponsoring during this Heritage Month!
