    It's very helpful to me even though I am not a contact tracer. It's very informative because it deepens my knowledge about this COVID-19 and the things that should be done when one is being infected.

    Great information. Though I am not totally convinced this originated from bats. Easy to understand information; sometimes hard to retain. The actors were great! Thank you. Now I hope I can figure out how to get the certificate.

    I really enjoyed the course. I am more informed and can better handle situations if I am hired as a Contact Tracer in Louisiana and also when I come into contact with others, I will be able to better explain the virus to them.

    This course was great. It not only educated me on how to be an efficient contact tracer, but also broadened my understanding on the nature of COVID-19, the technologies used to combat it, and the risks of spread from the virus.

    While i'm not medical or social worker and most likely will not be able to use the knowledge received during the course to help the people near time, still, i find this course very useful and worth of the time spent. Thank you.

    I learned a lot by taking this course and found the instructor articulate and she explained the dynamics of contact tracing very well. I think the course would greatly benefit someone who would want to become a contact tracer.

    Very effective course for both beginners who are not involved in public health and just want to know the basics of COVID-19 and contact tracing, and to public health personnel who seek to improve their work in contact tracing.

    I had some problems with the quizzes. I would answer the answers correct, but it would say that I failed and I would do it over again with the correct answers and it would still say that I failed. This happened several times.

    I go to Penn State World Campus and have for 5 or 6 years. I've been through two learning systems (Angel and now Canvas) and this course is the most polished, well-scripted, and Coursera is a fantastic platform. Superbly done!

    Very informative. Explained entirely what Covid-19 is and how to protect from getting or spreading it. Great steps and tools to apply to contact trace and clear descriptions of technical terms used in association to Covid-19.

    This course was difficult in the manner of obtaining and retaining information of contact tracing. Hopefully I will obtain a position as one with the added security of giving and applying accurate and life saving information.
