It has seven full time members of staff and runs the following courses:

Advanced Diploma in Health Services Managament

Occasionally, it runs short courses at District, Sub-District and Dioceasan levels. It also publishes the "Health Policy and Development" journal.

Assessment of relevance and impact of courses

The best way of assessing the relevance, quality and effectiveness of a course for health managers is assessing the performance of previous participants, their impact, their ability of promoting and managing positive changes in their place of work.

The Faculty attempts to do this in various ways. Regular contacts are kept with former students. Faculty members and new students visit them in their places of work. New students are sent to the working stations of former students for “field attachment periods”. Field research is carried out under the request or the suggestion of previous students who want a particular problem studied in detail.
