2: Education
Promote and provide education on the use and benefits of standards Other Information:
CDISC has a key role in facilitating education for its standards, and seeking additional SMEs in new areas aligned with its
mission. It is especially important that CDISC establishes an international network of experts to provide education in regions
outside the US. This educational effort is important both to medical researchers and to key stakeholders in the implementation
of the CDISC standards. We recognize that there are different levels of stakeholder education. High level policy making and
funding bodies require education around business use cases and benefits that are aligned with the Communications Plan for
CDISC. Education of technical and application-focused users of CDISC tools and standards necessitates a more comprehensive
program. And, the U.S. FDA has sought education from CDISC for its reviewers. CDISC Education should continue to be managed
and implemented through the work of the CDISC Operations staff and instructors and the training programs they offer. CDISC
needs to promote standards usage to ensure smooth integration across the healthcare domain. CDISC should be aligned with further
development and/or enhancement of best practices and terminology. A well designed Education and Communication Plan will support
and promote more advocates in the medical research community. CDISC needs to be proactive toward decisions that provide education
about its initiatives. It needs to ensure education but can decide to defer operational aspects of education to other organizations.
CDISC also needs to accept that part of our leadership role is to educate the world about "Standards" and not just "CDISC
standards".
