Description:

The Research Coordinator Plus (RC+) program was developed as an education and training program geared towards new research coordinators, those new to UIC, and more experienced research coordinators. 

This program consists of five components (CITI Training, Overview of Clinical Research, UIC Lectures & Resources, Best Practice Hour Seminars, and Master Classes). Within each component are different requirements. Those enrolled in the RC+ Program must complete all twenty requirements to finish the certificate program. Courses, as they are made available, will go under the requirements. To satisfy a requirement, enrollees must complete at least one course per requirement. 

Please view the table below to see the list of components and requirements. Currently available courses will be visible under their respective requirements. Upon finishing a requirement, you will be marked as completed for it. Once all requirements under each of the components are satisfied, you will be issued a certificate of completion for the RC+ program.

The CITI Training and Overview of Clinical Research contain external courses. Once completed, please email the certificate to ccts-training@uic.edu.

QUICKSet, or “Query UIC Knowledge Set,” is the CCTS Biomedical Informatics Core built version of the i2b2 (Informatics for Integrating Biology and the Bedside) framework. The purpose of this tool is to allow researchers to access de-identified clinical data from the UI Health system to obtain aggregate patient counts. QUICKSet can facilitate a study by helping researchers to quickly establish the feasibility of carrying out a research study or clinical trial, work through hypothesis creation by continually modifying their own searches, and to identify potential cohorts for clinical trials.

Completion of this training module is required to gain access to the QUICKSet system. Users requesting access can request accounts, consultations, and supplementary services at the CCTS Service Request Site.
