The practice labs were simulated real-world public health issues that I could encounter in my career. I feel both of these practice labs have prepared me to confidently fill roles in which my input would be used to effect change. In addition to the practice labs which required critical thinking and application of the tools and knowledge provided throughout the MPH program, I was a part of several inter-professional teams that worked cooperatively to achieve a similar goal of improving public health. I seamlessly applied many of the CEPH competencies in all of the mentioned projects to successfully meet the objectives.
