Introduction to Conflict of Interest (COI) Course

The Introduction to Conflict of Interest Course was created to provide a primer to members of the UBC community on Conflict of Interest (COI) and Conflict of Commitment (COC) in a university setting.  This course has been carefully designed to help you answer the following questions:

  • What are Conflicts of Interest and Conflicts of Commitment and why is it important to recognize and manage them?
  • What risks do Conflicts of Interest and Conflicts of Commitment pose for both yourself as a university employee and the institution?
