Questionnaire Updates for IRB Protocol Documents

When submitting an amendment or renewal for IRB Protocol documents in WVU+kc, you will be required to complete any questions that have changed or been added to the Questionnaire page of the document since the original submission. 

Update the questionnaire: 

You have two options when updating these questionnaire items:

• Copy the answers: If most of the information about your protocol has not changed, you will want to keep the existing answers to the questionnaire. To keep the existing answers in the questionnaire section, make sure to select the Copy the answers from the old version option on the Questionniare page. You will only be required to answer questions that have been updated by the system as you complete the amendment or renewal form.

• Do NOT copy the answers: If you have significant changes to your current answers, you may want to start from scratch with a blank questionnaire page. Select the Do not copy answers from previous version option, which will erase all the answers for this section and allow you to enter new information. 

After you make a selection, click the update button on the right to finalize changes and either keep your previous answers (to answer only the new/changed items on the questionnaire), or delete all previous answers (to start over with a blank questionnaire). All Questionnaire updates must be completed before you can submit a renewal or amendment for WVU+kc documents.
