CRU’s Electronic Data Capture Services

We support two project types:

• Self-service projects are hosted on the CRU’s REDCap platform and built independently by the study team.

• CRU supported projects are built and maintained by the CRU’s database development team.

Regardless of whether a project is self-served or CRU supported, both have access to support from the CRU. Visit the CRU Website for a breakdown of the service plans available.

For questions, consultations, training meetings, tech support, or any additional support, contact our support desk at cru@ucalgary.ca. Your request will be sent to the appropriate person who will contact you with further information.

Training Meetings and Consultations

Training meetings and consultations are available with us at the CRU. These meetings are currently being held virtually.
