How to pay (please read before applying)

How is this online workshop different from the Summer Workshop or the ATCR Certificate program?

The online workshop includes most of the Summer Workshop courses and also includes core courses in the Fall, Winter, and Spring quarters that are part of our certificate program.

Unlike the ATCR Certificate program, the online workshop does not give students a formal UCSF certificate. Students in the online workshop are not formally considered UCSF graduate students. Otherwise, students in the online workshop and ATCR Certificate program will be exposed to the same core courses.

In addition, students in the online workshop are not required to attend in-person seminars or to complete any in-person coursework.

I have taken the Summer Clinical Research Workshop and am interested in additional courses. Can I take the online workshop and apply my past course fees to the cost?

Yes. We will discount the cost of the online workshop for the fees you have already paid for the Summer Clinical Research Workshop.

I want to take additional courses not listed as part of this online workshop. Your website says I can receive a 50% discount. How do I apply the discount?

If you are enrolled in the online workshop, you can take additional elective courses that are not offered as part of the workshop package at a 50% discount. Please enroll in the electives using the quarterly enrollment process at: https://epibiostat.ucsf.edu/individual-courses.
