Do you offer any REDCap training and support? 

The Research Education Program has partnered with the Telethon Kids Institute Biometrics Team to provide an annual seminar on REDCap for Data Capture and Management, along with a series of workshops throughout the year, designed to familiarise you with the REDCap interface and explore some of the survey design instruments it has to offer.

Our REDCap seminars and workshops have all been recorded and are accessible from the REDCap resources page.

Additionally, we have recorded a series of short vignettes entitled REDCap Mini Vids which answer some of the most commonly asked questions from REDCap users. These are also accessible from the REDCap Resources page, as well as being made available to CAHS staff through the intranet. Search "REDCap training" for more information.

Why do I have no sound when watching a live stream through Avaya?

If the sound isn't working on your live stream, please try the following:

1. Exit and re-enter the meeting
2. If you are using a wireless headset:
   1. Check that it is charged and turned on
   2. Turn your headset on and off again
   3. Make sure it is connected before booting your laptop and/or opening the application so that it registers upon start-up.
3. Investigate if the sound is turned up on your computer. There should be a separate volume level for the “conference client” in addition to one for the actual computer, laptop or device.
4. Sound may not be available if logging in via Remote Desktop Connection. Please connect using a browser on your device.
