Health Informatics in Low- and Middle-Income Countries: Short Course for Health Information System Professionals: Course Syllabus Abstract:

“Health Informatics for Low- and Middle-Income Countries: Short Course for Health Information System Professions” was the result of an effort by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID)-funded MEASURE Evaluation and the Global Evaluation and Monitoring Network for Health (GEMNet-Health). 

For each unit of the course, this syllabus outlines the learning objectives, teaching methods, materials needed, a unit plan, and activity descriptions for the unit. Each unit’s plan provides suggested times for the sessions in the unit. These timelines were created with the assumption of a five day course. The course can be adapted to fit longer or shorter timelines. The unit lectures and activities can be found on the course’s landing page on the MEASURE Evaluation website at https://www.measureevaluation.org/health-informatics-short-course.
