Education Research Study Management

Challenge

Research teams are often a big part of universities, regular research studies from staff can be quite common. Educational institutions can face several challenges when it comes to research study management. Challenges such as making it simple for participants to sign up and managing participants over the course of the study. Having to manually track participants and share information relating to each specific study can be difficult.
