Alumni speak

The course has helped me to understand the broad spectrum of maternal and child health, the necessities as well as the limitations which might help us to come up with solutions whenever and wherever applicable. IIPH offers an excellent curriculum and the professors were always kind enough to provide extensive lecture series as well as addressing our doubts after every session. Overall, it was a great learning experience. My regards to the team and the management for providing such a platform.

“I felt this course was very useful which helped me to enhance my existing knowledge in Epidemiology. The modules are perfectly classified and a proper time frame has been provided for each. The lectures are very clear and the teaching staff explained them very clearly. Overall the course was too good to learn epidemiology.”

The faculty is a very knowledgeable, each one of them experts in a particular field and have wonderfully explained us each component of each module. I was also very satisfied with the regular mails & up to date information about the course, classes, tests, reminders etc. The course was planned really well and included all the topics encompassing Public Nutrition. I am really grateful to all the faculty members as well as the management & administration team of PHFI.

I have enjoyed the course thoroughly - the overall structure and the content are very balance for candidates having diverse backgrounds. I would particularly like to commend the timeliness of communication and speedy response from the course coordinator, it has been extremely professional and supportive.

Studying at PHFI was a great experience. PHFI is best for providing online courses for the students those are really interested in the public health field but cannot attend on-campus courses. Anybody majoring in other fields can access courses according to their convenience and can serve the community in future. Lectures are up –to-date and study material is easy to learn, faculty is very helpful, one can attempt quizzes and tests more than once .Really helpful in enhancing knowledge and leadership skills to guide tobacco users as being a BDS doctor and to pursue my interest in public health profession.

Congratulations for creating the Certificate Course on Tobacco Control. Tobacco-smoking or smokeless both are burning issues of today. I work in Corporate Health for past many years and from my experience I feel that this menace is on increase. More and more youth and especially females are becoming addicted to tobacco. The course on Tobacco control is not only interesting but informative too. I came across many important facts about tobacco smoking through this course. The contents are very useful and related to my work. After completing this course I feel empowered to deal with problems of this addiction and can help and encourage people to quit smoking. My sincere thanks to the team of this course who were ever ready to help and guide throughout the course.

Studying at PHFI was a memorable experience for me. The syllabus is up-to-date and study materials easy to learn, the faculty, counsellors were helpful. PHFI’s distance learning courses are must do for healthcare professionals.

One of the best courses i have attended which was spot on in terms of assignments, tests and regular updating through the online classes. I have found this course by PHFI as one of the innovative online programme where one can attempt the quizzes several times to update one self and also understand the real life issues. The notes provided including the av materials were very useful. Constantly following up on the portal will enable one to perform well. There is a need for more Public health professionals in our country with Swachh Bharath coming into lime light, this course is a must obtained one.

Generally medical personnel especially doctors are less equipped with program planning, managerial & leadership skills. Though some of the management principles, program planning, financial planning etc. were part of PG curriculum in MD-Community Medicine, students as well as teachers usually don’t prioritize it. Designing such a wonderful & comprehensive course is very helpful in gaining and refining skills. The presentations are informative and the faculties are very cooperative throughout the course. I really thank IIPHG for providing me an opportunity to be a part of the program. At last, I thank Mr. Jignesh Joshi and Mr. Jignesh Contractor for providing immediate support whenever there was any technical problem.

The course was very much useful to me; now I can able to understand the basics of the EHS management. And the practical examples which were provided in the lecture from their experience are remarkable. Now I understand what is health, safety and environment, how it should be taken care in the work places.
