HERC Online Courses 2021
HERC offers several courses in health economics for external participants.
CORONAVIRUS (COVID-19) UPDATE
Regretfully we had to postpone our 2020/2021 classroom-based short courses due to COVID-19.
However, we were keen to convert our existing short course materials into an online format as quickly as possible. After an intense planning phase, online versions of our short courses - Introduction to Health Economics and the Applied Methods of Cost-Effectiveness Analysis courses were launched and have proved to be very successful. We also launched a new course - Integrating Economic Evaluation into Clinical Trials - which was introduced in December 2020.
Our website is updated regularly to keep everyone informed, so please remember to check-in for future communications about developments with our course programme during 2021.
We are hoping to resume classroom based courses (hopefully with a hybrid option) in Spring 2022.
