About the Course

This course presents critical concepts and practical methods to support planning, collection, storage, and dissemination of data in clinical research. Understanding and implementing solid data management principles is critical for any scientific domain. Regardless of your current (or anticipated) role in the research enterprise, a strong working knowledge and skill set in data management principles and practice will increase your productivity and improve your science. Our goal is to use these modules to help you learn and practice this skill set. This course assumes very little current knowledge of technology other than how to operate a web browser. We will focus on practical lessons, short quizzes, and hands-on exercises as we explore together best practices for data management....

The course is very informative and interactive. some questions popping up in between the lectures, really kept me alert. The REDcap tool is also very good and working on it felt like a accomplishment

What an awesome course that accomplishes two valuable goals: 1) understanding the structures surrounding data management in clinical trails; 2) skills in the use of REDCap. I'm sure there must be other clinical trial software, but REDCap is an incredible tool that I'll regard as indispensable in future research. I am within days of final IRB approval (I hope) of a study using REDCap. Without this class I would not have been able to pull the survey together and have the quality data preparation. Thanks so much!

I found this course very elaborate and a course that takes one slowly but surely from a level of ignorance to knowledge. I recommend this course for all professionals with or without previous knowledge of management of clinical data. It is an excellent course. I would also love to thank to the lecturers for presenting it in a simple way so that any one could understand the concepts with in the course. Thank you again.

Very informative, reach in content course. Helped me to gain more insight into data collection and earlier setup process. Very interesting assignment that test once knowledge. The instructors were professional and the in between quizzes makes it more interactive course. Liked that fact that I could follow the course on my own pace and time schedule. Hope there will be more advanced courses in the future around this topic!

Highly Recommend This Clinical Research Course! If you're interested in clinical research, especially in managing data, this course is a great choice. It provides valuable insights into data management and includes hands-on training with REDCap, a fantastic tool for creating and managing research data. REDCap makes it easy to set up web-based forms, validate data in real time, and keep track of important study events.

This course has a fabulous hands on approach. The course is designed to utilize the RedHat program, which is executed through a user friendly approach. I enjoyed learning about Data Management for research in clinical settings, and look forward to branching forward to learn more. The instructors are thorough without being dry about the material and offer the information in an understandable and comprehensable manner.

I really liked taking this course, I learned a lot of new terminology, how to use the Red Cap system to do CRF, surveys. I loved the methodology to explain and the assignments, now I am starting a statistics course to complement this knowledge, I would like this team with this methodology and assignments to give a statistics course using the RedCap system. Thank you very much, I loved this course.

It is a detailed course on data management practices in health care. The course starts with the data and various data types; issues in capturing data in healthcare. The course details the theories, standards and guidelines for clinical data management. The videos on RedCap are simple and easy to follow.

Very practical given the potential scope of the material. The ability to get hands on with REDCap is a real bonus and helps bring the content to life through discovery and application. The special topics overviews as a dip into larger extensions of the work is also super helpful and helps put what we learn in context of the bigger picture in various settings.

I wish the instructors were a little more accessible. It is hard that everyone is looking to receive help. I think for those who complete asignment and review that you all find ways to have it where those same individuals can grade the ones coming behind them. It's only fair. Otherwise, the course wasn't that hard to follow.

This is one of the most informative and eye opening course I have ever participated in. Data is everywhere and is everything that helps researchers to invent or discover great ideas to improve human and business ideas. I wish I could be hanging my certificate copy in my office wall to show off my achievement.

A well organized course, very interesting topics and very good and clear instructors. The possibility of being able to download all the material is also very useful. The course provides quite comprehensive training on the subject. The training on RedCap and the tutorials on its use are definitely useful.
