|Is About=The ''MRC Centre for Research Policy Learning Management System (LMS)'' is an online e-learning platform hosted by the MRC Centre for Research Policy (formerly the Regulatory Support Centre). It provides free training modules aimed primarily at people working in health research, especially those whose work involves human participants, their data, or human tissue. The LMS offers e-learning on good research practice based on the Medical Research Council’s (MRC) standards, including topics like '''ethical conduct, data protection, confidentiality, human tissue legislation,''' and research regulation. Users can create an account, access courses and assessments, and for modules with assessments obtain certificates upon successful completion. The platform also includes additional resources such as guidance documents and interactive learning like board games on GDPR awareness. To use the LMS, individuals need to register and log in, and must allow pop-ups and Javascript for full functionality.
|Important Because=This LMS is important because it provides '''accessible, structured training''' on key aspects of ethical and regulatory practice in health research, aligned with the '''MRC’s expectations'''. High-quality e-learning helps researchers and staff understand ethical principles, legal requirements, and good research standards, improving compliance and research quality. The availability of assessments and certificates also supports professional development and institutional training programmes. Especially for those involved in clinical or data-intensive research, this centralised platform enhances understanding of complex topics like confidentiality, data protection, and human tissue legislation, helping reduce errors and ensure ethical conduct.
|Important For=Health researchers and clinical research staff; Research administrators and compliance officers; Early-career researchers and students; Institutional training coordinators
