WHO Academy

The WHO Academy is the World Health Organization’s (WHO) institute for learning. On the WHO Academy app, you can access a wide range of trusted, engaging courses on the health topics that matter to you. Our online courses have been developed by experts in adult learning to ensure that you learn in ways that are sure to make a real difference to how you work and the people that you care for.
