review

The ‘Applied economic modelling’-course enabled me to gain further insight on a range of economic modelling methods. Such methods are very important for my research work and will facilitate understanding of problems I’m studying. I really enjoyed practicing these methods and my colleagues and moderator were always there to help. I would highly recommend this course to others like me who are interested in animal health economics.

Distance learning

The virtual learning environment provided me with an opportunity to interact and discuss a myriad of issues with my colleagues all over the World. The shared experience from the various backgrounds made my learning interesting and better. Distance learning enabled me to undertake such a course because it was affordable. This was important given the majority of students from developing countries who cannot afford most courses given face-to-face. The flexibility provided by virtual learning provided me with an opportunity to be with my family, enjoy their company and support throughout the course. I was also able to manage my time better. I would highly recommend distance learning to veterinarians, economists, those in development, policy makers and all students especially in developing countries.

Apart from networking, I have learnt how to apply economic modelling methods and I’m currently using them in my research work. I have also had opportunity to share what I’ve learnt with my peers.

The study of Epidemiology

Epidemiology has grown to be an indispensable asset for researchers, clinicians and practitioners. Far reaching in its impact. It is the foundation of evidence-based medicine for the individual patient and the cornerstone of public health policy for societies.

Epidemiology as a scientific discipline is an excellent option; for the doctor, who wishes to be armed with both biomedical knowledge and statistical wisdom when looking for the right patient care of their individual patient. Also for the public health professional, who faced with global health questions does not wish to lose sight of the impact for the individual. And for the veterinarian who is faced with challenges that play a national role yet must look at the impact on individual cases.
