"After years in various nursing roles I decided it was time for me to study again and the Certificate IV in Population Health course really sparked my interest.

The practical aspects of the course were really great - we designed and undertook real projects, looking at real issues and speaking with real people. I chose the smoking cessation stream for my 'specialty' and this helped me to learn and understand the nature of addiction, which I really valued.
