- Abstract
The article presents information on training staff, who will transfer epidemiologic skills and knowledge to local health departments in California, over the telephone. Two computer programs were used to train designated staff in Monterey County and San Luis Obispo County, including Epi Info, an integrated program developed by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention that allows for epidemiologic data entry, analysis and reporting. Software technical assistance personnel provide help to their customers, such as leading the customer through various computer program steps over the telephone.
