About this course
The Human Tissue Authority (HTA) regulates the use of tissues and cells for ‘human application’ (such as direct engraftment or as starting material for a cell therapy). Consent to donate tissue for these purposes may only be sought by authorised staff with appropriate training.
This online assessment provides a quick way for designated staff to demonstrate that their understanding of the HTA’s Code of Practice for consent is up to date.
There is also a self-paced tutorial for anyone who has not previously received training on this topic, which explains:
  • the key UK legislation around consent
  • what is considered ‘appropriate’ and ‘valid’ consent
  • the appropriate scope and duration of consent
  • good practice on where to take consent and how to record it.
