The IRB and IACUC Compliance module InfoEd eForms have been upgraded. The new eForms have a cleaner more Clemson oriented look and feel and have been restructured for an overall easier submission process. You may now use them to submit applications. Thank you for your patience during the upgrade.

The IRB Office will continue testing the new forms December 2-6, 2024. No new IRB submissions are allowed during testing.  

The IRB submissions portal will reopen for researchers to use on December 9 at 8am. All submissions created before December 9 will be deleted.  

Demo sessions to introduce the new forms to the campus community will be held December 10 and 17 at 12pm via Zoom. 

The links to create a new IRB submission (e.g., Initial Application, Amendment, Progress Report, etc.) were deactivated at 4:30pm on November 22, 2024. All IRB submissions created in InfoEd but not officially submitted to our office were permanently deleted on Monday, November 25 to prevent compatibility issues with the new eforms.

The IRB Office will continue to review and approve submitted applications during the deployment process.

The IRB submissions portal will be re-activated 8am on December 9 for new submissions.

Demonstration sessions will be scheduled in December to introduce the campus community to the new forms.

Be sure to visit the IRB webpage for updated information.

New IACUC eForms will be launched from December 2-6, 2024.  The IACUC submissions system will be unavailable after November 22 in order to prepare for the deployment of the new forms.

Any submissions – such as initial applications, amendments, and annual reviews – that are created in InfoEd but not officially submitted to the CU IACUC Office by November 22 will be permanently deleted to prevent compatibility issues with the new eForms.

If you plan to use animals in research or teaching before February 1, 2025, please submit your application by November 22 using the current eForm.

If you plan to use animals in research or teaching after February 1, 2025, we recommend submitting your application after December 6, when the new eForms are deployed.

Be sure to visit the IACUC webpage for updated information to ensure a smooth transition to the new forms.

The InfoEd upgrade applied on May 29th was successful. All compliance modules are online and functional. You may use the system normally. Thank you for your patience.

The production InfoEd server hosting the Compliance modules will be unavailable on May the 29th, 2024 as the system is being upgraded.

The InfoEd Compliance modules supporting our IRB, IACUC, and IBC processes will be offline on Monday, April 18 from noon to 2PM and on Friday, March 22 from noon to 2PM for disaster recovery testing. During this time users will not be able to log into the system nor will they receive system notifications. Please contact the Office of Research Compliance if you have any problems or questions.

The InfoEd Compliance modules supporting our IRB, IACUC, and IBC processes will be offline on 05/01/2023 from 5:30PM to no later than 7:30PM for database patching. After the completion the Compliance modules will become available again.

Update: InfoEd database patching has been completed (7PM EST). You may resume using the IRB, IBC and IACUC compliance modules.

On Wednesday, March 22^nd, InfoEd will be unavailable.  CCIT and the InfoEd Administrators will be conducting a disaster recovery exercise on our production environment. This is a test to insure that in the event our servers fail locally, the InfoEd application can be accessed from an off-site location.  We have blocked the entire day, however, for the past 3 years, the system has been available by noon on the day of the exercise.

Update: The testing has been completed. You may resume InfoEd related tasks. – 11:15AM 03/22/2023
