Voices of Public Health: Rolling out a digital training initiative in India during COVID-19 - a podcast by John Snow, Inc.

In our latest podcast, JSI team members working on the Rapid Immunization Skill Enhancement (RISE) project discuss their experience piloting their digital training program for improving health workers’ immunization knowledge and skills in India. The RISE training modules went online for use by health workers in March 2020, almost coinciding with the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic in India. The team shares the challenges & opportunities that a digital training platform has for continuing health workers’ training even during a pandemic. This work is done for the Ministry of Health & Family Welfare, Govt. of India and funded by GAVI, the Vaccine Alliance.
