If I saw that on a resume, I would seriously doubt your public health competencies. CEPH accreditation is a low bar. But it would not matter if you were a few years out and had been doing interesting work.

Thank you for your honest opinion. I was under the impression that the CEPH accreditation finally gave some real weight to their program that it was previously lacking. I guess I can’t escape the branding that comes with that school without thoroughly proving myself in the field, huh?
