Public Health Publications

The National Board of Public Health Examiners (NBPHE) has years of useful data and information that is useful to those in the public health field. To make sure this information is available, NBPHE has formed a publications committee to work with organizations and academics to present articles with a focus on the intersection of certification and public health.
