PROMIS National Centers

Globe of flagsThe PROMIS National Centers (PNCs) are part of the PHO, and they serve as the information point for PROMIS in their local countries. PNCs have an educational and promotional role and can respond to questions about translations. They work around the world to optimize and harmonize the use of PROMIS measures and related resources for research, clinical care, and population monitoring.

The PHO International Committee works with the PROMIS National Centers and the PHO Board of Directors to identify important emerging international issues. It coordinates and promotes best practices to develop, translate, validate, and utilize PROMIS measures across countries.
