I had a wonderful experience learning about contact tracing under Dr. Emily Gurley. The basics of Covid 19, identifying a case/contact, the way to handle complicated situations as a contact tracer, the way to communicate were simply phenomenal. Kudos to Dr. Emily Gurley and team.

I am in the HR profession and took this course to plan for our company's return back to the office. Loved the material, the set up of the course, and the knowledge checks. I would also recommend to all of those who uncertain about COVID-19 and want to be aware and knowledgeable.

Great course, I wish more people would take it. I feel Contract tracing is essential if we are going to beat this disease. Even if you don't end up working as a contact tracer, you will learn valuable information about how to protect yourself and your loved ones from Covid-19.

I found this training to be very informative. I feel I learned more about this virus through this training then on TV or social media. I believe I would be a great Contact Tracer if given a chance. I would recommend this training to others that wanted to know more about COVID-19.

This course is one of the best taught, organized and best assessed courses that I have ever done.

I love the mini-formative assessments, which made the summative assessment more manageable.

It is amazing how important social skills are for someone to be a successful contact tracer.

I'm so super thankful to have had the opportunity to take this course! You all are to be commended for providing this opportunity for me and others across the U.S. and beyond. It was well presented and so very interesting that I was eager to complete it. Thank God for you all.

This was an awesome course. It equips you to really understand the magnitude of dealing with infectious diseases. The knowledge I have gained has been invaluable to me. Taking this course has even help to dispell my own fears, doubts and uncertainties during this time. Thank you!

I really got a real good glimpse on the ends and outs of contact tracing . A balance of social worker and investigator. And to be empathic to what a lot of people are going through. I'd like to thank the instructor she was really proficient and I could understand every exercise.

This is a must-do course for all Contact tracers and those willing to volunteer in this period of crisis. The course has been articulated with relevant content, real-life video demonstrations, Q&A which makes the learner learn by living the experience of an actual contact tracer.

Really thorough work on the teaching of this course. The pace was excellent and the terminology presented was easy to learn and follow. Really appreciated the vignette examples and having the student become aware beforehand of the complexities that such work can and will present.

Awesome course. I've always wanted to go back to school but my busy life stops me from doing it but with Coursera it brought back some excitement inside me and gave me some confidence again. This course is definitely I can use and help out stop this Pandemic. Thank you so much!!!

I found this course to be very informative and helpful. It not only prepares one to be a Contact Tracer, but I found the facts and information quite comforting during this time. I can only hope to share the knowledge and comfort that I have received here as a tool to help others.

Very helpful and educational. Thank you for providing this at a time when it is so important that our country get this virus under control. Dr Gurley is obviously very educated about contact tracing and COVID-19. She is an excellent teacher and was very clear in her explanations.

En realidad me encantó mucho y me gustaría que colocaran mucho más cursos así porque nos ayudan en nuestro aprendizaje y en nuestro autocuidado yCómo tener una comunicación espontánea con los enfermos de Covitt Cómo tener una comunicación espontánea con los enfermos de COVID 19

This is a very relevant and timely course in the time of pandemic and will come in handy in any and future health crises. This course is comprehensively structured and is very easy to understand with a lot of knowledge and learning that do not overwhelm first-time course takers.

Awesome course by Ms. Gurley! I really enjoyed it, learned and look forward to applying all the concepts and knowledge gathered in this course to help humanity in such difficult pandemic times. Thank you so much for making this valuable information available to all!!! Julissa

Me ayudó a entender mejor la enfermedad de nuestra pandemia actual, entender sobre los protocolos que no sólo se usan en los estados unidos sino a nivel mundial. Aprender que hacer en los casos de Tracing , en caso de obtener este trabajo tan importante y vital en estos tiempos.

I give 5 star for the initiative and effort of JJohns Hopskin University by offering and making this contact tracing course for free. Its a big help in the world who suffer this pandemic. It is very effective interventions not to spread COVID-19. THANK YOU FOR THE JOB WELL DONE.

Great Course!! At first I didn't like the communication modules. But once I went through them all, I understood. I loved the content and the platform. A big THANK YOU for being free. Class instructor was great. I hope more people take the course and become Contact Tracers.

It was a special course because I was able to understand everything about contact tracing in this pandemic, and learn how contact tracing is a great tool in public health.

Thank you, Johns Hopkins University.

This course was very educational and informative. It was very organized, interesting and easy to comprehend. This course is great not only for contact tracers but would be beneficial to anyone else in order to educate themselves about certain aspects of the covid-19/coronavirus.

This topical course not only shared the basic knowledge and skills that a contact tracer needs but also explored common complexities that can arise in this line of work. Excellent for self- development and a wider understanding of the worldwide pandemic we find ourselves facing.

The course was very well organized., easy to read and interesting. The varieties of learning modalities helped to keep me engaged and the information was presented in a clear and concise manner with many opportunities for repetition and understanding. It was great! Thank youl

Good overview of contact tracing with clear examples. The course provides good foundational knowledge and introduces some basic technology content. Specific technology tools and platforms will still need to be covered separately in trainings by local public health departments.

Sorry that I'm just getting around to this review, but I am so grateful to Hopkins and Dr Gurley for this course. It really helped to quell my fears at the beginning of COVID. I am not applying for a job with my city and will bring this and my other lessons about COVID with me.
