AI Article Synopsis

  • In developing countries, a training program called the Certificate in One Health was created to equip public health professionals with skills to tackle emerging infectious diseases.
  • An online survey of 176 past participants evaluated the program's strengths and weaknesses, with 85 completing the survey; key strengths included the curriculum and lecturer expertise, while a major weakness was the compressed schedule.
  • The course had a positive impact on participants, with many reporting improved skills in epidemiology and biostatistics, and a significant number of respondents later published research or obtained funding.

Article Abstract

In developing countries, public health professionals and scientists need targeted training and practical skills to respond to global emerging infectious disease threats. The Certificate in Emerging Infectious Disease Research was developed in 2008 to aid such professionals to respond to complex emerging disease problems. The short-course was modified slightly in 2013 and renamed the Certificate in One Health. To evaluate the immediate impact of the short-course, an online survey of 176 past participants from both the courses was conducted. The survey tool assessed the program's process, impact, and outcome measures respectively via assessing the courses' perceived strengths and weaknesses, perceived skills gained, and the participants' current position, publication status, funding status, and educational attainment; 85 (48.3%) participants completed the survey. Reported program strengths included the curriculum, expertise of lecturers, and diversity of the training cohort. The principal reported weakness was the compressed academic schedule. The most frequently reported benefits included: epidemiological and biostatistical skills, followed by One-Health knowledge, and research skills. Twenty-eight percent of the survey respondents reported publishing one or more manuscripts since completing the course and 21% reported receiving research funding. The course appears to have had a positive, immediate impact on the students' self-perceived knowledge and capabilities.
