Medidata Academy announces changes to Rave Study Design and Build Essentials training

We know how hard it is to spend five business days away from work to attend training. To help accommodate everyone looking for study building skills, Medidata Academy now provides more flexible training options for our popular Rave Study Design and Build Essentials through the use of two courses:

Each class has its own focus on the study build process.

  • For those who wish to learn about eCRF development only, you may enroll in the Rave Study Design and Build Essentials (SDBE) - Data Managers and complete your training in 3 full days or 5 half-day sessions. The course also covers Global Library and Architect Loader functionality.

  • If you wish to take Rave Study Design and Build Essentials (SDBE) - Data Validations and learn about edit check and derivation development, you need to complete Rave Study Design and Build Essentials (SDBE) - Data Managers first. Then, this course is available as 2 full days on-site or 4 full days remotely.

  • Both classes taken together offer the same content you would find in the original Rave Study Design and Build Essentials course.

Additionally, we now offer both as public classes. Sessions are available remotely and in person. Please see each course’s page for the schedule.

For those who would like to take both courses in the same week, you may still request a private session through your Medidata Professional Services contact or sign up for our on-site public classes. Just remember to request or sign up for both classes as we no longer take requests on the original SDBE class.

Both classes are required to qualify for the Medidata Classic Rave Certified Study Builder exam.

For anyone that took Medidata Rave Study Design and Build Essentials under the old format, you still qualify for the Medidata Classic Rave Certified Study Builder track.
