    About the Course

    In collaboration with the Rollins School of Public Health and the CDC's Division of Global Health Protection, Emergency Response, and Recovery
    Branch, this course introduces basic concepts and principles of communicating during a global crisis or emergency. It explores why
    communication during an emergency is different and the importance of adapting emergency messages to the needs of affected populations.
    Through sample scenarios, you will get the opportunity to identify information needs and develop useful messages using six guiding principles
    to help you communicate effectively and promote behaviors that reduce health risks during an emergency.

    The course was able to provide a simulation on emergency response mechanisms. The reading materials and video lectures provided are engaging and effectively introduces new concepts to a new learner.

    I enjoyed this taking this course and found the information to be useful in any emergency, not just global ones. I have already begun using some the techniques and they have proven to be helpful.

    very helpful and informative. We are living through a tough time in a pandemic and there can be many more pandemics in the future so it's important to know for organizations how to communicate messages. I learned a lot from here. The references were helpful.

    It's rather quick and effective to learn the basics of communication in emergency. It could have been more interactive and the activities less repetitive (video and handouts). Overall satisfied!

    I liked this course. It consist of useful and basic information about emergency communications. But there are some repetitive thoughts at many videos and text content.

    Good enough. But 3 weeks is too short for this amazing course. I didn't really like the assignments. But the overall course material and goal were really awesome.

    I consider the course to be very good, informative and educational. However, I am not satisfied with the Coursera platform because I wanted to get the certificate, I have passed the course and paid but I did not get it. It is not serious. Greetings

    Good information that is well presented by the professors. However, written assignments are tedious and add little.

    It takes too long for the third assignment to be peer-reviewed. Otherwise, it was an insightful course.
