Written Instructions for Adding RCR modules (video walk-thru above)

  1. Log in to CITIprogram.org. FIRST TIME you will get warning that you are creating a new account. If asked, we recommend approving the merge of any previous accounts.
  2. Click "Michigan State University (MSU) Courses"
  3. Click "Add a Course or Update Learner Groups"
  4. Scroll down to question 3 and choose correct group
    (Answer 'No' to other question topics. You can always add them later)
  5. Click Submit button.
    (Read the course info, if necessary.) (Complete the Integrity Assurance Statement, if necessary)
  6. Begin modules by clicking their name.
  7. Check My Profile to ensure your Preferred Email address is your netID@msu.edu

What if I need more than one RCR group?

You may choose a different group at any time.

The RCR groups have many of the same modules. If you complete a module for one group and later select another group, that module will remain 'completed.'

CITI transcripts import into MSU system - use @msu.edu

Using the login button on this site automatically ensures your group completions are imported weekly into MSU's system. Otherwise, you must update a previously set-up CITI account with your @msu.edu email as your preferred primary email. Other variants (e.g. @ht.msu.edu, @egr.msu.edu) will not work.

Modules that you complete in CITI will be imported into the Ability LMS (http://train.ora.msu.edu) on Thursday afternoon.

Note that your module completions are not released for import into MSU's training system until you have completed all required modules in that group.
