Training course in MCH epidemiology

Each year, the Health Resources and Services Administration, Maternal and Child Health Bureau; CDC; and CityMatCH offer a Training Course in MCH Epidemiology. The course is part of an ongoing effort to enhance the analytic capacity of state and local health agencies. The course is an intensive program combining lectures, discussion, and hands-on exercises. The course also has opportunities for individualized technical assistance. Several pre- and post-training webinars build on and extend the content of the in-person training.

For more information about the training course or to see previous course materials, see Training Course in MCH Epidemiology.
