New rates for using REDCap
DAUnit offers support throughout your research process: analysis of your project needs, REDCap training, creation of the DMP (data management plan), support in writing the protocol for the ethics committee, creation of instruments, statistical support, etc. In early 2022, we began developing a new contract model for using DAUnit services and managing projects with REDCap. This model is based on contracts with Institutions (either Institutes or Pathways) that use REDCap for research data collection. For administrative reasons, the minimum contract amount is 5000 CHF and consists of a minimum of 5 slots (1000 CHF each).
These slots can be combined according to the needs of the Institution. Slots with research or student projects are annual slots, while support slots can be used over a longer period.
In this table you have the overview of each slot type and their content, duration and price. In color, we have added some examples to show you how you can create your packages by combining slots of each type. Please note that you can have a package with 5 slots of the same type and none of another type.
