CRCD Database Project
About Us
Data Guidelines
The CRCD Database Team has developed a set of Data Guidelines to support researchers in managing their data throughout its lifecycle. These guidelines are structured to address research data management and the setup of REDCap.
Data Request
The CRCD Database Team facilitates the secondary use of data via data requests. Eligible users can request access to the data hosted within the CRCD Database, subject to IRB Approval. To aid in data exploration, an in-house data catalogue is available for users to browse and identify variables of interest.
The CRCD Database Team organizes sharing and training sessions to build research capacity within the CRCD community. The sharing sessions are structured around the five stages of the Data Life-Cycle, while the training sessions cover various aspects of research data management with hands-on activities.
Data Acquisition - Sharing Session
In this session, we explored key aspects of data acquisition, focusing on recommended tools and technologies that streamline the process. We covered essential techniques and best practices to ensure data quality and efficiency. Additionally, we discussed the benefits of providing training and oversight to research teams and highlighted how collaboration can enhance data acquisition efforts, leading to more comprehensive and accurate datasets.
REDCap - Training Session
In this session, participants learned how to create their own surveys using REDCap and gained an understanding of its basic functions. The training focused on designing surveys tailored to specific project needs. Attendees also participated in hands-on exercises using mock data and scenarios to apply what they learned in a practical setting.
The CRCD Database Team publishes a regular newsletter, DataBites, to keep you informed about the latest developments and best practices in data management.
