Project Highlight: CDCynergy: A Health Communication Model
Client: Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Office of Communication (CDC OC)
Working with the CDC's Office of Communication, ORISE designed and developed CDCynergy 2001, an application that assists health communicators in developing effective health communication plans.
Using a six-phase model in a step-by-step approach, the tutorial tells the communications professional "what to do" and "how to do it." Users can study examples, view resources and media samples, plus receive advice from a consultant.
