The CASPH is a 5 course (15-credit hour) program of study. The Certificate Program is organized to offer a continuous integrated core curriculum centered around the public health competencies. The curriculum has been designed to reflect the interrelationship between public health practice and research and designed to train current and future practitioners and researchers in the core public health functions.
