As countries’ health systems face increasingly complex threats, training workers in field epidemiology is even more important. The globally recognised Field Epidemiology Training Program (FETP) builds a cohort of skilled field epidemiologists. #WorldFieldEpidemiologyDay

Field epi capacity means we can detect, investigate and control health threats; carry out health surveys; conduct disease surveillance; establish/evaluate surveillance systems; perform applied field research, and evaluate prevention/control efforts. #WorldFieldEpidemiologyDay
