    I am leaving nursing and selling my wellness studio and I want to teach. I am looking at the MPH degree but there are so many programs. I do not have the knowledge about the right accreditations, and if I need to look at the accreditations just for the MPH program or the department the MPH program is through and the school's accreditations.

    What are some non profit, excellent, MPH programs that are non profit and have been around for awhile. I would like to be done in 2 years but go to a great school. I know they exist but it just takes some looking around for them. I looked at LIberty Univ. and I can't even get a copy of the course Outline Content for the courses it offers. Plus it is not accredited.

    The UWF program is CEPH accredited if memory serves. I believe this is the preferred accrediting body for the MPH degree. UF is no doubt a great choice but I can't get past the cost , even as a Florida resident!

    Note also that the UWF has some certificate programs that are then directly transferable into their MPH. Perhaps starting there would let you get your feet wet. http://uwf.edu/sahls/certificate-ph/

    Edited to add....they are CEPH accredited: http://uwf.edu/sahls/masters-ph/

    UNC-Chapel Hill Can't say enough good things about UNC-CH. Top MPH Online Program in U.S.

    But I see you're in the West. Grand Canyon University has good medical profession programs. Grand Canyon University is a private Christian University in Phoenix, AZ | Grand Canyon University Might be cheaper and would have good name recognition.

    U of Oregon online MPH The Oregon MPH online Graduate Certificate in Public Health is now accepting applications for admission winter term! | Oregon Master of Public Health

    UC Berkeley Online MPH Welcome to the School of Public Health Web Site

    For good value, AMU/APU can't be beat.

    This link is for the program at Oregon Health & Science University, which is not to be confused with the University of Oregon.

    Part of the problem is the OP's question . . . "the best and most affordable." It's almost unheard of that the best is also the most affordable so I'd say that you either need to prioritize these two criteria or give a price that would be your ceiling as total cost for the degree (or cost per credit, etc.)

    While that's happening I'll add this. It's no secret that I often recommend UNISA because of their prices but how many people know about MEDUNSA (Medical University of South Africa)? I'm asking because they have what might be the least expensive MPH program on the planet:

    My apologies

    Apologies. I did see that it is accredited by CEPH.

    I have also considered the "Certificate in Public Health, Occupational Safety and Health" it looks like fun but only one of the classes will carry into the MPH from that certificate.
