Public Health Deserves Accessible AI Training
Most AI training falls into two categories: generic corporate courses that don't understand public health context, or expensive university certificates that cost thousands of dollars. GSA offers excellent training—but only for federal employees with .gov emails.
Local health departments are left out. You're trying to figure out AI with limited budgets, no dedicated training resources, and staff who are already stretched thin. That's not right.
We're public health practitioners who've worked inside health departments. We know the constraints you face. These free courses are our way of giving back to the field we love—and ensuring that every health department can access quality AI training, regardless of budget.
