While the IRB has not designed a recruitment flyer template, please note that however your flyer is designed it must include the following informational elements to be approved by the IRB:

• a statement that your project is research
• the purpose of the study
• any activities participants will engage in
• the duration of their participation
• any possible risks to participants
• any benefits participants will (or may) receive
• the fact that their participation is voluntary
• your name and contact information (phone number, email address)

If relevant, your flyer must also include information about eligibility criteria regarding who should and who should not participate in the study. Your recruitment flyer must not contain any misleading information about the study or overemphasize incentives or compensation (e.g., by using large or bold type).
