    2) Offer individuals considering a career in research administration a comprehensive understanding of the required skills and the essence of being a research administrator.
    3) Enhance NCURA's ability to develop and support its members more effectively.
    4) Internationally promote the widespread use of RAPIDS, fostering a global understanding of research administration.
    5) Contribute significantly to the expanding body of research in the field of research administration.

    Your Involvement Matters:
    We invite each of you to take part in this groundbreaking initiative by dedicating just 10 minutes of your time to complete the RAPIDS survey. Your input is crucial in shaping the future of research administration and advancing our collective understanding of this vital profession.

    Thanks Melinda!
    Yes, it's great to have a Spanish version, many thanks to our Colombian colleague Salim Chalela Naffah for organising that!

    Let's hope for quite a few more responses by the end of the month!
