NetCALC is a new excel-based modeling tool developed by Albert Kilian and the NetWorks project. It is designed to model several scenarios of continuous distribution approaches based on country-specific data, and provides estimations of the ability of varied channels to overall universal coverage. These channels include ANC, EPI, school-based distribution, curative care, community-level distribution, and retail.
This online training provides a background on the NetCALC tool, which can be used to assess current coverage of ITNs, estimate how many ITNs are needed to maintain universal coverage into the future, and how well different channels of ITN distribution can contribute to an overall continuous distribution strategy. NetWorks has developed an online training module that consists of a 35 minute introduction to the tool and a 50 minute walkthrough on how to use each of the functions. Each component is broken into 5-6 parts so you can pause your work at any time and complete it later. It includes 2 assessments, one for each component.
The online training is free and a certificate of completion will be sent to those who complete the training in full. You will need to create a free account in order to begin the training.
