In this course, you will learn about the role and importance of civil registration and vital statistics (CRVS) systems that are used to track birth, death, and life events. Experts from around the world will explain what CRVS systems are, how they are used, the legal bases for registering vital events, and challenges experienced with CRVS systems. You will learn about how CRVS data can be used to inform population-level decision-making, including around specific methods such as medical certification of cause of death (MCCOD) and verbal autopsy, and the application of a gender and equity lens to data systems to ensure they are responsive to the needs of populations. Our overarching goals for the course are to support the collection of country-level death and birth data, to improve the use of data to inform policy priorities, track trends, and plan interventions, and enhance monitoring of major risk factors for early death, especially from noncommunicable diseases.

Access to lectures and assignments depends on your type of enrollment. If you take a course in audit mode, you will be able to see most course materials for free. To access graded assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience, during or after your audit. If you don't see the audit option:
The course may not offer an audit option. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid.
The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.
When you purchase a Certificate you get access to all course materials, including graded assignments. Upon completing the course, your electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there, you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile.
