Public Health Management Academy

The Public Health Management Academy is a training program for new program managers. It offers the opportunity to learn management strategies and techniques, along with skills in the use of data for program planning and evaluation.

Teams representing jurisdictions or areas of professional interest are brought together to creatively address current public health issues. Fellows receive training in basic management skills, data analysis, program planning, and business plan development. At the end of the year-long program, Fellows will develop a strategic response to a critical need, and provide a plan for funding and sustainability.

The Public Health Management Academy provides training across the public health system, from local governmental agencies, maternal and child health agencies, social service agencies, and community nonprofit organizations. As a result of the team approach in the learning design, valuable linkages are developed across the public health system.
