UPM REDCap Service

About REDCap

The REDCap (Research Electronic Data Capture), a secure web application for building and managing online surveys and databases, is designed, in particular, to support online and offline data capture for research studies and operations. The REDCap Consortium, an extensive support network of collaborators, is composed of thousands of active institutional partners in more than one hundred countries who utilize and support their own individual REDCap systems (https://www.project-redcap.org/).

As part of the Consortium, UP Manila is authorized to use the REDCap program for research studies, activities, and projects. The REDCap service is currently managed by the Office of the Vice Chancellor for Research (OVCR) and the UPM Information Management Service (IMS), in coordination with the Research Grants Administration Office (RGAO) and the corresponding research review units. The UPM IMS serves as the in-house host with the IMS Director serving as the UPM REDCap collaborator.
