Effective fiscal year 2024, we will be implementing the following fee structure for participating in the CCDA adjunct program. See letter for more information.
- Annual support fee: $5,000 per CCDA adjunct and $4,000 per registry data manager. CCDA adjuncts have access to pull data from various institutional data sources and thus typically require more CCDA staff support; registry data managers are limited to the data in their provisioned registry and need less support.
- One-time onboarding fee: $5,000 for new CCDA adjuncts and registry data managers. This fee covers interviewing candidates proposed by the sponsoring department, initial training, mentoring, and review. This fee is in addition to the annual support fee.
