We're thinking of promoting the top x number of ranked and/or accredited
programs in health education & promotion. Also ranked/accredited MPH's.
Questions:
Does a list of such programs currently exist?
If yes, is there room to improve upon it... ie. Ways to make the info
more accessible, user friendly?
If such a list doesn't currently exist, what would be important points
to consider when creating, promoting such a list...?
Do you have other ideas/suggestions?
