The Research Compliance Suite contains four multimedia online training courses. The four courses are:

- Conflicts of Interest and Research Misconduct – identifying, managing and responsible conduct of research
- Professional Relationships and Data Issues - relationships between researchers, authorship, peer review and data issues
These online training courses are designed for Universities, medical schools, hospitals, clinical research organizations, laboratories and other medical research institutions. The courses educate staff, faculty and administrators at research facilities about how to handle a wide range of critical compliance issues, including information on ethical and legal considerations involving human subject research, how to recognize potential conflicts of interest or medical misconduct and the proper steps to take to report these violations. The suite also provides a framework for properly documenting and reporting on money received from grants and signing contracts with partners.
Recent updates to the Research Compliance Suite online training courses include new guidance for FDA clinical trials staff, NIH peer review and appeal process information, an overview of the "Common Rule," OIG Work Plan issues, mentor and trainee recommendations, ICMJE recommendations, and several other important new regulations.
