April 19, 2024 (Yap, FSM) – Today, our Yap State cohort completed the third course of the Strengthening Health Interventions in the Pacific (SHIP) Program – Introduction to Epidemiology and Field Epidemiology. The SHIP program aims to strengthen epidemiology and surveillance capacity by focusing its training in two key areas – preparing U.S.-Affiliated Pacific Islands (USAPI) health agencies’ staff at all levels to become certified Epi Technicians and developing high-priority surveillance and health information system components for health agencies.
