IREx has created a new user role called the coordinating center staff (CC Staff). This role is assigned by the Reviewing IRB Liaison. The CC Staff is typically the coordinating center contact or a member of the Lead Study Team who is responsible for managing Participating Sites in IREx.

CC Staff have the ability to add or remove sites to the study and upload approvals for Participating Sites as they are received. These users also have access to the Status Summary Tab to track Participating Sites through the reliance process until they are ready for sIRB review.
