International Experience and Technical Assistance (IETA) Program

Are you looking for an outstanding opportunity to gain experience in international public health work?  Then, the International Experience and Technical Assistance (IETA) training program may be for you! 

The International Experience and Technical Assistance (IETA) program is a developmental training program for Federal public health employees offered by the Center for Global Health at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in Atlanta, Georgia. Specifically, IETA is a professional development/technical assistance program that takes place over a 12-month period.  It consists of attendance at three (3) workshops in Atlanta, Georgia (4-5 days each) and a supervised short-term (12-week minimum) overseas assignment with an international public health program.  All cohort participants serve overseas between May and November in one of the 50-plus countries where CDC has an overseas presence.

Currently, IETA Cohort 13’s twenty-four participants represent CDC, the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA).  They are serving in Cambodia, the Dominican Republic, Ethiopia, India, Kazakhstan, Kenya, Lesotho, Mozambique, Namibia, Nigeria, Rwanda, Tanzania, South Africa and Uganda, working with the Division of Global HIV/AIDS (DGHA), the Global Disease Detection Program (GDD), the Division of HIV/AIDS Prevention (DHAP), the President’s Malaria Initiative (PMI) and/or the International Emerging Infections Program (IEIP).
