The Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health and the Agència de Salut Pública de Barcelona (Public Health Agency of Barcelona, Spain), with the collaboration of the Universitat Pompeu Fabra, are pleased to announce the ninth annual Johns Hopkins Fall Institute in Health Policy and Management. The Institute provides a unique opportunity for short-term, intensive educational courses in a variety of public health disciplines. The Institute is jointly sponsored by the world-renowned Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health and by the Agència de Salut Pública de Barcelona, one of the major public health research agencies in Europe. With the collaboration of the Universitat Pompeu Fabra, the Institute serves as a convenient venue for health professionals to begin or enhance their education with a focus in key health policy issues. Participants, while learning about policies and management/leadership approaches that work, will explore current innovations as well. The program offers strategies for effective policy implementation and management. The Institute offers graduate-level courses that are equivalent to regular Bloomberg School offerings given during the traditional academic year. The Institute courses may be taken to enhance one's continuing education in the area of public health, and they may be taken for Johns Hopkins graduate academic credit.
