En este curso, conocerá las técnicas tradicionales y emergentes en la recopilación de datos a nivel de población que se pueden utilizar para fortalecer los programas y políticas de salud pública. Expertos de todo el mundo definirán y explicarán conceptos clave en el diseño y la implementación de encuestas basadas en la población, centrándose en el uso de técnicas de encuesta emergentes, como encuestas por teléfonos celulares e internet, datos de servicios de salud y sistemas de información de salud, y registros de salud basados en la población. Aprenderá cómo se pueden usar estos datos para fundamentar la toma de decisiones a nivel de la población y la aplicación de una perspectiva de género y equidad para garantizar que estén siguiendo y respondan a las necesidades de las poblaciones.

Frequently asked questions
Access to lectures and assignments depends on your type of enrollment. If you take a course in audit mode, you will be able to see most course materials for free. To access graded assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience, during or after your audit. If you don't see the audit option:
The course may not offer an audit option. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid.
The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.
When you purchase a Certificate you get access to all course materials, including graded assignments. Upon completing the course, your electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there, you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile. If you only want to read and view the course content, you can audit the course for free.
You will be eligible for a full refund until two weeks after your payment date, or (for courses that have just launched) until two weeks after the first session of the course begins, whichever is later. You cannot receive a refund once you’ve earned a Course Certificate, even if you complete the course within the two-week refund period. See our full refund policy.
