"The free six-hour course is open to anyone, but taking and passing it will be a requirement for thousands of contact tracers being hired by the state of New York to fight the pandemic."

>>Enroll - this course includes a certificate and the fee is waived:

"The COVID-19 crisis has created an unprecedented need for contact tracing across the country, requiring thousands of people to learn key skills quickly. The job qualifications for contact tracing positions differ throughout the country and the world, with some new positions open to individuals with a high school diploma or equivalent."

"A contact tracer does the detective work of calling up people known to be infected with a disease and working out where they have been in recent days and who they might have met."
