Converting Materials from the REDCap Training Materials Repository

REDCap Consortium Training Materials Repository

Information from the repository regarding use of materials
The REDCap Training Materials repository is available thanks to administrators throughout the REDCap consortium, who submit materials developed for training their institution's REDCap users or supporting their REDCap team. Please note that this page is meant to be accessed by administrators, not end users.

To administrators downloading the below material:

• Since accepted procedures and REDCap versions can vary from one institution to the next, it is up to you to review any materials downloaded from the repository to ensure institutional compatibility.
• It’s fully expected for you to customize the materials after you download them. Please make sure you remove institution-specific content.
• If you encounter any issues with downloaded materials or the functionality of the repository page, please contact redcap@vumc.org.
