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.

This was stat heavy and is difficult to follow without background knowledge. That should have been covered in the course description.

The course was okay, but the tests are difficult and far too dependent on the complicated ConTESSA app. Thanks anyway.

The videos were very informative and helped in enriching my knowledge. Huge thanks to all the Professors. But we weren't able to submit assignments and that was really frustrating and nerve-wracking. Due to the technical issues I wasn't able to complete the course within the deadline and couldn't complete the course. I suggest Coursera to work on these technical issues.

Thank you

It is impossible to check your results in conTESSA exercises. I do not know if my inputs are good or no, or their answer are wrong or the version of the program is different. I can not progress in the course.

Übersetzung stürzt alle 2 Minuten ab, die Berchnungen im Test sind nicht möglich da ConTessa nicht funktioniert und sich nicht öffnen lässt.
