How can I request access to REDCap?

Updated on

This guide contains instructions on how to request an account for the University of Toronto's recommended survey and data analysis tool, REDCap. REDCap can be used for both academic research and administrative purposes. There is no cost to university staff or departments. Before you can access REDCap, you need to request an account from your Divisional REDCap administrator. At FASE, our administrator is Dr. Qin Liu (Senior Research Associate of ISTEP).

If you already have a REDCap account, then general support for the tool is handled via [email protected].

Requesting access to REDCap at FASE

The current process for requesting access to REDCap is described on this webpage:

  1. If you wish to request a REDCap account, please complete the onboarding form.
  2. The completed form will be directed to Dr. Qin Liu, and she will approve the request upon receipt.

REDCap Resources

After your account is created, you may be interested in reviewing the following resources:

  1. UofT REDCap Official Website
  2. UofT REDCap Training Tutorials and Resources
  3. REDCap virtual office hours
  4. More REDCap Training videos

Why REDCap? The University conducted a comprehensive search for a tool a few years ago and settled on REDCap as opposed to other far more expensive commercial products, sometimes with uncertain data storage locations. For a full list of features, please see the REDCap features list.
