CTEP Identity and Access Management (CTEP-IAM)
When you create a new account, you will be asked to choose one of the following registration types:
- Investigator (IVR) - MD, DO, or international equivalent
- Non-Physician Investigator (NPIVR)- advanced practice provider (e.g., NP or PA) or graduate level researcher (e.g., PhD)
- Associate Plus (AP) - clinical site staff (e.g., RN or CRA) with data entry access to CTSU applications (e.g., OPEN, RAVE, TRIAD)
- Associate (A) - other clinical site staff involved in the conduct of NCI-supported research
Choose an appropriate registration type based on your role in NCI-supported clinical studies.
ID.me Proof-of-Identity and Multifactor Authentication
To protect NCI systems, subjects, research staff, and confidential information, NCI has partnered with the nationally recognized platform ID.me to provide multi-factor authentication and identity proofing for all NCI systems. ID.me meets the highest standards for these IT security functions, including:
- The Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA).
- NIST SP 800-63-3 Digital Identity Guidelines
- The European Union General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)
Instructions for Creating and Linking ID.me Accounts
| User Type | Where you can find detailed instructions | Where you can find a training video |
|---|---|---|
| US: New CTEP-IAM User | New CTEP-IAM user SOP | New CTEP-IAM user creating a new ID.me account- training video and transcript |
| US : Existing CTEP-IAM User | Existing CTEP-IAM user SOP | Existing CTEP-IAM user creating a new ID.me account- training video and transcript Existing CTEP-IAM user linking existing ID.me account- training video and transcript |
| Non-US: New CTEP-IAM User | New Non-US CTEP_IAM user SOP | New Non-US CTEP-IAM user onboarding to ID.me training video |
| Non-US : Existing CTEP-IAM User | Existing Non-US CTEP_IAM user SOP | Existing Non-US CTEP-IAM user onboarding to ID.me training video |
| Non-US: Verification with ID.me | Non-US Verifier SOP | Non-US Verifier training video |
Users with NIH credential accounts (such as federal employees and contractors) may use their NIH PIV credentials instead of ID.me.
Registration and Credential Repository (RCR)
RCR registration requires additional documentation and must be renewed annually. This NCI policy is designed to fulfill FDA requirements for IND sponsors to select qualified investigators.
Investigators must complete the “Statement of Investigator” FDA Form 1572. Other documentation required for each personnel role is shown in the table below:
| Documentation Required | IVR | NPIVR | NINT | AP | A |
