One Health Content Note (Draft)

Table of Contents

On-Line One Health Training Notes

There are three main sources for on-line One Health content:

  1. Commercial platforms often charging a modest fee for a certificate – good for soft skills (management, communication etc), moderate for pre-requisites (virology, statistics etc), weak for southern OH.
  2. Organisations often providing for free, sometimes a certificate – good for One Health, not adapted COHESA needs.
  3. Universities often providing distance or blended Masters – strong on OH especially zoonoses, weaker on food systems and environment.

Modalities of commercial platform content provision

  • Individual courses: There are 1-off classes about a certain topic. The time to complete one will vary depending on the course, but it can take from 2 or 3 weeks to a couple of months. These are the nuclear basis of every other type of course.
  • Course bundles: Several online learning platforms will offer a collection of courses about a certain topic. They will give you a deep understanding of a field (e.g. data analyst, Python development, etc.). They are called Specializations, Nanodegrees or Learning Paths by the different platforms.
  • Bachelor’s Degrees: It’s also possible to earn a traditional bachelor’s degree (at edX or Coursera). As these platforms partner with universities, you’ll receive an official university diploma. Be aware that this won’t be cheap, these start at $15,000 per program.
  • Master’s Degrees: Similarly, to bachelor’s degrees, it’s also possible to study for a master’s degree at edX and Coursera.
  • Multi-platform Bundles: and match from curated courses to obtain a UP/UoG validated OH certificate

Example

Resources required for developing on-line learning

One hour of distance learning materials 90-240 hours on average (Kapp & Defilice).

Chapman Alliance (2010) an hour of eLearning costs ~$10,000 to produce

Linkedin (2020) – ADDIE model for one hour video learning

  • Analysis (audience, competition, marketing) – 35 hours, $2,000
  • Design (lecture, ID, graphics) – 160 hours - $2,800
  • Developing (write, shoot, edit) -120 hours -$4,800
  • Implement (upload, monitor, manage) – 100 hours - $3,000
  • Evaluate
  • Overall $8,000 to $36,000
  • 150 hours, 22,000 USD
  • Upwork reduces costs
  • www.onlinestudies.com


International experts:

ILRI experience

  • Time for preparing 5 day course: 10 days: = $5,000
  • Time, accommodation, per diem to deliver 5 day course: = $3,000 + $5,000
  • 20 participants accommodation per diem= $4,000
  • Materials, practical’s, travel, miscellaneous, admin, coms= $3,000
  • Total=$20,000


CIRAD experience

  • With EboSursy project we have organized two « OH »  trainings with 30 participants (Africa) and three modules in parallel (disease ecology, Molecular biology Epidemiology), international teachers/experts (OIE, IRD, Cirad, IP, local experts) -> budget well above 20 000/course


University experts

Credits to qualifications

  • Scottish – 10 hours is 1 credit; one short course, 3 months, 15 credits; PgCert – 60 credits (4 courses); PgDip – 120 credits; MSc 180 credits including 60 for project – part time can work 15-30 per term, full time 45 credits per term
  • UoG GBP 1,500 per 30 credits


Notes

MOOCs are primarily a complementary asset for learners already within existing systems (Reich & Ruipérez-Valiente 2019)

Micro-credentials are an emerging area. Since 2016, micro-credentials have expanded to encompass many types of short courses such as:

  • Short courses on-site or online (often called MOOCs) or both,
  • Boot camps – short intensive learning experiences, often associated with information technology or entrepreneurship opportunities,
  • Digital badges earned for achievement or participation in short learning events, and
  • Licences and certifications.

The goal of the OH-TARGET (One Health Training And Research Global NETwork) project is to improve health conditions worldwide by understanding the structural health problems caused by the living environment and by developing context-specific solutions in a holistic and participatory approach to development cooperation. The OH-TARGET project works with veterinarians, social scientists and geoscientists, both from the LMU and from partner universities in nine countries in Africa, Asia and Latin America. Its many initiatives include:
