The University of Iowa College of Public Health's Upper Midwest Public Health Training Center (UMPHTC), in cooperation with the Iowa Counties Public Health Association (ICPHA), has developed a series of practiced-based educational programs targeted toward new public health administrators and nursing administrators. The programs are part of the Institute's continuing effort to provide training to strengthen the skills and knowledge of the current public health workforce.
Learners can expect to explore information on the 10 essential services of public health, and how they are tied to strategic planning for health department staff. This course offers access to relevant material, interactive learning assessments, and a unique question and answer session.
Public health administrators and nurse administrators who are relatively new in their positions (3 years or less) and who seek to enhance their skills and knowledge can find value from this course.
