Course Information

  "It was the best training course I have taken in my entire life.  The community of learning that we built during the course continues through email exchanges and personal networking.    The PHCE course at ADPC in Bangkok gave me the opportunity to share information I have gained through years of humanitarian work and has rid me of the deep fear I had of nutrition surveillance and epidemiology!  I am not an expert in either field yet, by any means, but I am no longer afraid of these courses and am now encouraged to get an MPH!" .... Maha Muna, UNFPA - Bangkok
