The Creating Helpful Incentives to Produce Semiconductors (CHIPS) and Science Act, broadly,  is a bill that promotes the US manufacturing of semiconductors, research innovation, and research security.

Main aspects of research security outlined in the Act:

  • Prohibits participation in a Maligned Foreign Talent Recruitment Program and requires certification of no involvement in such a program.
  • Requires Research Security Training

Additional information about Foreign Talent Recruitment Programs is available under Guidance below.

The requirement for research security training for both NSPM-33 and CHIPS and Science Act of 2022 can be met by completing the four research security training modules in Workday Learn. The modules were developed with support from the National Science Foundation.

To locate the training modules:

  • Within Workday Learn, browse Learning Content for “Research Security”
  • Select the “Research Security Training” program. Four modules are included in the self-directed training:
    • What is Research Security?
    • The Importance of Disclosure
    • Manage and Mitigate Risk
