Forms & Templates

Kuali Protocols Form Guides

All IRB submissions must be created in Kuali Protocols.  The below Form Guides are meant as a tool for researchers to understand what information may need to be collected to complete the online IRB application in Kuali Protocols. The Form Guides are organized by Protocol Type and Submission Type.  Additional information on creating and submitting an IRB application in Kuali Protocols can be found in the Kuali Protocols instructional guides.

Informed Consent Templates

You are strongly encouraged to utilize sponsor-provided consent templates. If an informed consent template is not available for your study, the templates below can be used. For instructions and tips on writing informed consent documents, see IU HRPP Guidance on Informed Consent.

In order to promote readability of translated informed consent documents, the HRPP is no longer providing Spanish translations of the IU consent templates. If investigators anticipate enrolling subjects who do not speak English, the consent and other subject-facing documents should be translated as a whole, then submitted to the IRB for approval.

Translated short form consents are available below.  Please review the HRPP Policy on Informed Consent carefully prior to use of a short form consent.  Contact HRPP staff with any questions at irb@iu.edu.
