• To provide technical support of the Clinical Data Management Centres in the CDMTDR Network.
• To provide training courses relating to clinical data management. These include basic and advanced features on Electronic Data Capture software, as well as training course on writing 'Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs)' relating to clinical data management.

To assess and follow up with the progress in clinical data management activities within the CDMTDR Network.

Since its establishment, a series of training courses, meetings and workshops have been conducted continuously. At present, the network consists of six Clinical Data Management Centres from Asia (China, India, Japan and Thailand), Africa (Ethiopia) and South America (Colombia). For each centre, key personnel include the clinical and/or general data manager, statistician, information technology manager, and data entry operators.
