The most recent recordings of these sessions and descriptions are available below:
Creating Forms and Surveys (Workshop Materials) - General overview of REDCap as well as demonstrations of 1) creating a project, 2) building a data collection instrument, 3) creating text, multiple choice and calculated fields and 4) enabling a data collection instrument as a survey.
Entering and Exporting Data (Workshop Materials)* - Demonstrations of entering data to your project, creating reports, exporting data, and adding study team members to your project.
Survey Setup and Distribution (Workshop Materials) - Enable REDCap data collection instruments as surveys and distribute surveys to participants via the Public Survey URL, Participant List, Automated Survey Invitations, and Survey Queue.
Longitudinal Projects (Workshop Materials) - Set up a longitudinal project, create events, designate instruments for events, use the scheduling and calendar tools, and set up and Automated Survey Invitation.
*For study team members who will only complete data entry, the recording Entering and Exporting Data is sufficient.

Vanderbilt's REDCap Training Videos
These are the training videos provided the developers of REDCap at Vanderbilt University. These are available at this link and in useful places within the REDCap user interface. The videos were created in older versions of REDCap so the user interface will look different but the step-by-step processes to set up different tools and applications are still relevant to the current version of REDCap.

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.
