ADDITIONAL TRAINING AND CONTINUING EDUCATION OPPORTUNITIES
Many non-profit organizations, government agencies, and academic institutions throughout the United States offer listings of multiple online or distance learning public health training and continuing education programs. Since this NACDD Assets Inventory List is only updated once yearly, it might be beneficial to visit these sites periodically for additional educational opportunities in specific content areas or if you are interested in other public health training opportunities outside the scope of the Chronic Disease Competencies.

ONLINE AND DISTANCE LEARNING
MPH DEGREE PROGRAMS
These formal degree programs offer many courses which address the domains and competency areas. However, you must be officially enrolled in the degree program in order to access the coursework. These programs may be of interest to practitioners who want to pursue additional professional development opportunities which ultimately result in an advanced degree in public health. All of these programs are offered in on-line and/or distance learning formats, minimizing (and in some cases eliminating) the need to travel to the host university.
