Abstract

Summary: In 2011, ASPHER established the Agency for Public Health Education Accreditation (APHEA). This represented the culmination of nearly a quarter of a century of activities dating back to 1988 in developing and assuring quality in public health education in Europe. This article provides a brief history of APHEA, outlines current activities, and explores the experiences of some of those who have participated in the process to date.
