Then, regardless of whether you are at the VA or one of the hospitals, you must select Marshall University as the institution.
Everyone is required to complete the basic course, then every two years you will complete a refresher course. If you have completed the basic course and have forgotten your username and password, you can request that information on the CITI website.
