CPH (Other exams) study guide

The Certified in Public Health (CPH) is a professional credential administered by the National Board of Public Health Examiners (NBPHE), an organization created to credential the public health workforce. NBPHE describes the CPH as the only credential of its kind for public health professionals, demonstrating both knowledge of key public health sciences and a commitment to continuing education focused on emerging and established public health issues. It is aimed at people working across the public health field - practitioners in health departments, researchers, analysts, faculty and students - who want to distinguish themselves and signal competence to employers and communities. According to NBPHE, professionals, leaders, alumni and faculty from more than 95 countries have sat for the CPH credential, and active certificants have reported over 500,000 education hours while staying current in the field. Certification is not one-and-done: NBPHE frames the CPH as a life-long learning credential, with recertification activity required to maintain it. NBPHE publishes a content outline, candidate handbook, study resources, and information on fees, discounts, and accommodations to support preparation. Topics on this exam: Public Health Sciences and Public Health Practice and Policy. The CPH study guide has 2 sections and about 691 words.
