VINCENTweb
http://metalab.unc.edu/vincentweb/

VINCENTweb contains the material from the videoconference, 'Getting Started in Injury Control and Violence Prevention,' presented in a web-based format that both expands upon and supplements the televised program. By offering injury control information in this manner, it provides participants with an innovative platform for self-guided teaching and a dynamic, easy-to-use professional resource. This course provides a broad introduction to the problem of injury in the U.S. and presents a way of thinking about planning for interventions.

In addition, VINCENTweb offers users the opportunity to apply on-line for continuing education units from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and/or the Society of Public Health Education.
