Purpose:
The goal of the Pandemic Training Academy is to rapidly and effectively train staff to support public health systems throughout California as they mobilize to address COVID-19. This program capitalizes on UCSF’s experience in rapidly mobilizing resources to develop a robust epidemiological surveillance and outbreak response effort.
We have created this training program to:
- introduce learners to the basic principles of public health and epidemiology as they relate to COVID-19
- conduct case investigation and contact tracing activities in their jurisdictions
- understand the essential components of isolation and quarantine
- conduct all activities in alignment with the principles of good public health practice, which include respect for persons, cultural sensitivity, autonomy and confidentiality.
If you have questions about registering or need assistance please contact greg.mehlhaff@ucsf.edu for guidance.
