What Health Education Specialists Earn in Wisconsin

The Wisconsin median for health education specialists is $74,040 per year, above the national median of $64,070, on state employment of 900 (BLS OEWS, May 2025).

These are statewide figures. The Bureau of Labor Statistics does not publish wages at city level, so no page can tell you what this job pays in Neenah specifically. For the metro-level picture where it is published, and the full percentile spread, see the Wisconsin page.

Choosing a Public Health Program From Neenah

The subject matter does not change by location: epidemiology, biostatistics, environmental health, health policy, and program planning and evaluation. What changes is how you take it. Ask each college whether the program holds accreditation from CEPH, the Council on Education for Public Health, how much of the coursework is delivered online, and which components require you on campus. Credit transfer is decided by the receiving institution and genuinely varies, so request a written transfer evaluation before you enroll.
