In 2021 the University of the District of Columbia (UDC) in partnership with Howard University (HU) received ONCfunding to develop an innovative new program that will recruit at least 500 participants (with a special emphasis on underrepresented communities of color) over a four-year period. This program will provide students with specialized within-degree training, certification training, or short-term fellowship training in Public Health Informatics Technology (PHIT) across multiple pathways (AA/AS, Bachelors, MPH, Pharmacy/Health Professional, and Post-graduate fellowships) along the education continuum. Hereafter referred to as PHIT4DC, this program seeks to expand the public health informatics workforce in the District of Columbia and the surrounding region.
This project is supported by the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC) of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) under grant number ARP-PHIT-21-001 entitled Public Health Informatics & Technology Workforce Development Program grant as part of a four-year project totaling $8,905,857.00.
