Overall objectives

  1. Provide capacity building in Public Health through Internet based e-learning for those working in low- to middle-income countries who would otherwise not be able to access such education, using a 'social model' based on volunteers and open educational resources to keep costs low
  2. Offer education at the 'train the trainers' level, equivalent to that of a Masters level, for those with prior educational and occupational experience
  3. The education will meet identified competences which help with the practice of Public Health and be action oriented, reflecting a critical understanding of the evidence base, including methods of prevention through population health research, to assist in tackling major health problems facing the populations in which the students work
  4. Create an educational portfolio leading to a Certificate and Diploma in Public Health based on being shown to have met the competences identified in 4 or 8 of the course modules respectively (and later to a Masters)
  5. Develop collaborative partnerships for this work with higher education institutions and other organisations globally
