User Guide

eRAP is an online system that has been implemented for the electronic submission and review of human research ethics proposals.

eRAP allows researchers to access all their submissions and documents, as well as track the current status of their submissions. Researchers can also access and submit requests for review for their ongoing studies that have previously been reviewed and approved.

Who can use the system?

Any researcher and student (graduate, postdoctoral) that has a ÎÛÎÛ²ÝÝ®ÊÓƵ username and password can use the portal. Most ÎÛÎÛ²ÝÝ®ÊÓƵ faculty and students are already entered in the system. If you cannot log in, please contact eRAPsupport [at] mcgill.ca

PIs can designate students or staff of their research team to work on the submission. Because staff are not automatically in the system, the faculty PI may have to contact eRAP support requesting system access.

External researchers cannot use eRAP.
