About the Course

This course aims to provide managers and developers of contact tracing programs guidance on the most important indicators of performance of a contact tracing program, and a tool that can be used to project the likely impact of improvements in specific indicators. Students who complete the course will be proficient in using the Contact Tracing Evaluation and Strategic Support Application (ConTESSA) to estimate the impact of their contact tracing program on transmission and strategizing about how to increase their program’s impact. A secondary audience for the course will be decision makers interested in knowing more about the characteristics of effective contact tracing programs, and strategies to improve. The course is designed for individuals who are already leading contact tracing programs who have significant experience with epidemiology and public health. We strongly recommend completing this course on a laptop or a desktop rather than a phone as you’ll need to complete worksheets and open the course and the application simultaneously....

This course is an advanced level course on COVID-19. I love this course so much. From this course we know about the use of programmed apps for contact tracing. It is very helpful for job aspirants.

Excellent albeit difficult ( at least for me). The instructors and material provided is just great. Everybody who wants to support their community should do the course and get the qualification.

After getting used to the formats and delivery of the course, I found it very interesting. I would suggest to others, please read the instructions VERY carefully. It is tricky in the wording which is pretty typical if one has developed the application and is very comfortable. Do read the instructions VERY carefully when doing the questions, as they could be confusing if you don't. Other than that, I think it would be a very useful tool, especially when you can change certain criteria in the advanced options. Useful for different countries and populations.

Boy! Did this give my logic and math skills a workout. The information needed was there, I just had to figure out how best to use it. Clear, step by step instructions and well-paced lectures made this course both valuable and accessible.

The course was really good. Although the test for Module 2 and 3 are far away from easy and just not suit the course and example provided. Hope this will be next consideration to give the test closer to example and course provided.

Great course for contact tracing, but would like to see if you guys complete/ or try answering a question, as similar to one given in quiz, that will help aspirants to learn and adapt quickly. Rest this course was very informative.

Great course! The teaching was great and I learned a lot about contact tracing for public health. It would be awesome if the instructors held office hours for more in depth questions.

I feel the course was indeed interesting ,and offered much information not necessarily presented in way for those who need to run with it easily.

the dashboard is easy to use. some changes are subtle in the question and require more training prior to use.

Really got stuck on quiz 3, question 2 and 3. Seems like this was a problem with many other students.
