The LMS provides an opportunity for individuals to assess their own level of competency regarding various public health issues, develop a training plan and access competency-based programs and products to improve competence and track and document professional development activities. Currently, the system houses over 150 public-health related programs in a variety of formats, and most are free of charge. To respond to the dynamic public health environment, the LMS will constantly evolve, adding resources and information relevant to emerging challenges in the field.
The LMS course catalog includes listings from other regional systems and public health preparedness centers across the country to provide our users with best practice programs and products.
