Field Epidemiology Training Program (FETP)

This program consists of trainings to create a cadre of well-trained disease detectives with the skills to gather critical data and turn it into action. Training focuses on “learning by doing.” Residents spend over 75% of their time in the field investigating outbreaks, conducting studies, and training other healthcare workers in their countries. These fellowships, which can last up to two years, prepare experts to tackle the challenges of keeping people healthy. Through these activities, FETP strengthens critical public health systems, improves the effectiveness of key public health programs, and addresses their country’s public health priorities.
