The development of this lecture note for training Health Extension
workers is an arduous assignment for Ato Fasika Melesse at Defence
University College.
Essentially, it required the consolidation and merging of existing in
depth training materials, examination of Health Extension Package
manuals and the Curriculum.
Recognizing the importance of and the need for the preparation of the
lecture note for the Training of Health Extension workers THE
CARTER CENTER (TCC) ETHIOPIA PUBLIC HEALTH TRAINING
INITIATIVE (EPHTI) facilitated the task for Defence University to write
the lecture note in consultation with the Health Extension
Coordinating Office of the Federal Ministry of Health.
Finally the Federal Ministry of Health would like to express special
words of gratitude for those who contributed and endeavored to the
development of this lecture note and to TCC/USAID for the technical
and financial support.
