PAHO added new courses to the Virtual Campus for Public Health

The Virtual Campus for Public Health (VCPH) of the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO) added new free access self-study courses for health professionals.

In this sense, the CVSP offers self-study courses, courses with tutoring, courses focused on specific countries, courses in convocation and other educational materials from previous courses. All content is free.

 

Thus, at the end of January, the CVSP announced the addition of more than 15 new self-study courses to your platform. Among them the following stand out:

  • Management of working conditions of human resources in health
  • Respectful maternal and neonatal treatment
  • Comprehensive health of adolescents
  • Environmental cleaning and disinfection in health establishments
  • Self-care for frontline emergency responders
  • Estimated per capita alcohol consumption in the Americas
  • Early diagnosis of cancer in children and adolescents
  • Basic course of prevention and control of multiresistant infections in the hospital

Most of the courses are available in Spanish and English, and some are also available in French and Portuguese.

The self-study courses can be completed at the student's own pace and without defined times, which promotes self-taught tools and user autonomy.

To access the contents it is necessary create an account on the platform. The registration process is simple, it is only necessary to fill out a form with some personal, professional and academic information.
