Roles¶
Every page lists the roles it serves in its front matter (roles: [...]). These are reader roles, not job titles: one person usually holds two or three. A clinical research coordinator follows crc and the REDCap pages tagged data-rc; data staff follow data-rc and pipeline; trainees follow analyst. Use the Map in Role view, or the Tags page, to see what each role needs to know.
