Use this PCORnet-approved agreement to speed the contracting process for PCORI-funded studies. This pre-negotiated template agreement can serve as a starting point for prime and site investigator negotiations. The result is time-savings in the contracting process for PCORI-funded studies since sites are already negotiated in advance.
Training
Training resources can be any form of printed, audiovisual, or electronic information resource in which each piece of content has a specific learning goal or desired outcome, such as workbooks, interactive programs, training videos, etc. They typically contain:
· Stated learning objectives
· Measurable steps toward understanding the learning objective
· Measurement/assessment tools to determine the success of the training
SMART IRB and IREx List
This form gives investigators and project teams a consolidated view of which sites participating in PCORnet maintain an IRB. It also provides the site Federal Wide Assurance (FWA) number and notates which sites have signed the SMART IRB reliance agreement and registered in the IRB Reliance Exchange (IREx) platform. This site list is updated regularly and eliminates the need for investigators and project teams to search for key information in several different places.
Data Study Flow Resources – Basic
This diagram shows a basic data flow in a study powered by PCORnet® and is intended for sites to include in their IRB application. Using this document, project teams can ensure consistency in IRB applications and speed IRB submission by providing a template for sites to quickly fill in the blanks based on data flow in their study.
Data Study Flow Resources – Complex
This diagram shows a complex data flow in a study powered by PCORnet® and is intended for sites to include in their IRB application. Using this document, project teams can ensure consistency in IRB applications and speed IRB submission by providing a template for sites to quickly fill in the blanks based on data flow in their study.
Data Sharing Agreement
The Data Sharing Agreement (DSA) is an approved PCORnet template for use by research institutions to speed prep-to-research queries. The DSA defines the standard terms to which the Coordinating Center for PCORnet® will adhere when data are sent from the Network Partners to the Coordinating Center. The DSA also contains a template showing the flow of data through the queries.
Research Ready Training Resources for Staff Engagement
Clinical staff seeking to improve engagement in clinic-based research studies and increase their knowledge of basic research principles can use these training materials and best practices for implementing studies in clinical settings and communicating with clinical support staff. Content and format for the resources were informed by both clinic staff and research team members who conduct studies in clinical settings.
GRID Toolkit for Prioritizing Health Research Topics
This toolkit offers equity-centered and creative approaches for authentic engagement in research. This toolkit can help uncover health priorities that matter to people and patients.
Research Findings for the Community
The PaTH Clinical Research Network (CRN) designed this template as a guide for sharing the results of a published article with the general public.
PaTH to Health Just-In-Time Study Results and Dissemination Training
The PaTH Clinical Research Network (CRN) designed this training explaining the benefits and limitations of observational studies, common data issues and how to manage them via the PaTH to Health Diabetes Study.
Collecting Community Stories: The MyPaTH Story Booth Toolkit
The PaTH Clinical Research Network (CRN) designed this toolkit to help collect rich and meaningful stories from communities. Materials in this toolkit include sample flyers, brochures, and interview prompts. This document can enable researchers and clinicians to understand and better serve the needs of their communities in immediate and tangible ways.
