Distributional Cost-Effectiveness Analysis Online Course
A course focusing on methods for analysing the equity impacts of health programmes and trade-offs with cost-effectiveness.
This is an online course focusing on methods for analysing equity in the distribution of health programme costs and effects and trade-offs between equity and cost-effectiveness. The course is aimed at health economists and health professionals with experience of health economic evaluation, who wish to learn how to use more specialised methods for analysing distributional equity impacts and trade-offs. It is designed for participants who are familiar with standard methods of cost-effectiveness analysis, for example those who have already attended our short courses in Decision Modelling for Health Economic Evaluation. It is envisaged that participants will currently be undertaking cost-effectiveness analysis, or planning to do so in the near future.
There are two ways in which students can take this course:
1. By attending the course "live". Materials are released once per week and students complete the lectures and exercises on the course platform in their own time, then attend a weekly live Q&A session with tutors and faculty via Zoom and can interact with other students, tutors and faculty via online discussion boards.

2. By following the course “on demand”, which is available immediately. The content is the same as for the live course, but the course is in an unsupported “self-study” format with no tutor and faculty support or interaction with other students, and is aimed at those that wish to start straight away, are unable to make the live course dates, or are in a time zone that makes participating in live sessions difficult. Students gain 2 months’ access from the point of enrolment and work through the content in their own time. Click below to find out more and sign up.
