Back to the listingInfodemiology Training Program
Provider: Public Good Projects
Description: This training program consolidates best practices and is tailored for US-based public health professionals to train them to be effective “infodemiologists.” Disease surveillance has long been a cornerstone of public health practice, and now the field must apply such skills to monitoring and responding to trending health narratives. Infodemiology is a rapidly advancing discipline within public health, and is driving the adoption of multiple new methodologies as well as consolidating best practices from fields such as epidemiology, journalism, and political science. In today’s quickly changing world, it’s an essential function for health departments that want to understand the information landscape, build resiliency, and improve health outcomes.
A joint effort of the de Beaumont Foundation and PGP, the Infodemiology Training Program is a free, asynchronous, video-based training that helps public health professionals recognize, monitor, and respond to trending health narratives. State and local public health department practitioners can use these cross-cutting skills to integrate the study of public health information into their ongoing practice.
There are four modules in this training, and the modules can be completed individually. Certificants can earn up to 6 credits for the full training and credits can be awarded for each module. Module 1=2 credits, Module 2=1 credit, Module 3=2 credits, Module 4=1 credit.
