Public Health Management Academy / Emerging Leaders
How We Work
The design of the Academy provides training in management and program planning for public health professionals working in state/county/local health departments and community based organizations. This will be accomplished by:
- promoting data-driven community planning and collaboration;
- developing community based programs aimed at the improvement in health outcomes; and
- improving fiscal management and program planning.
The training program will be facilitated by a cadre of UIC faculty and external consultants. Together they will examine the characteristics, skills, attributes, and best practices of effective public health management and administration. The Management Academy consists of a combination of online and face-to-face learning opportunities.
