Modeling Handbook

Purpose

The CFA Modeling Handbook is a collection of educational resources designed for public health decision-makers and epidemiologists who are interested in using modeling for decision-making or interpreting the output of mathematical models without having to read a textbook. This handbook is designed to help those who may not have a background in modeling understand and evaluate the models used at CFA. This handbook will walk through how models can be used for public health, how they work, and how users may evaluate them.
