Course Description

Consistency is what makes a study defensible months later. This level teaches you to write usable SOPs, keep the essential study documents in order, and map how data moves from the participant to the database, the process view that your digital data tools will later implement.

Who this level is for

Coordinators, data managers and research officers who run day-to-day study operations. Recommended after Levels 1-3.

What you'll learn

  • What an SOP is, how it differs from the protocol, and why SOPs create consistency and quality
  • How to write simple, usable SOPs (one to three pages) with version control and approvals
  • The essential documents and study files to keep, and how to organise them on paper and electronically
  • How to map the data flow from source data to case report form to database, with a simple data-flow diagram

You finish with: Your core SOP list, a filing plan and a data-flow diagram.
