In this section you will find resources aimed at trainers.
Now that the COVID-19 Vaccination programme has stabilised we have taken the opportunity to move material, from the vaccine specific slide sets to units one and three of the core eLearning.
The content has remained the same and continues to align with JCVI statements, Green Book Chapter and CMO letters. It is anticipated that this will result in much less duplication for learners, especially experienced vaccinators.
The vaccine specific slide sets remain; however, they will relate purely to those specific aspects of the vaccines including composition, storage and handling and presentation.
New and experienced vaccinators may find it useful to review both the Core COVID-19 Vaccination eLearning and the COVID-19 vaccine specific slides.
This section holds resources to support trainers and facilitators to deliver facilitated learning sessions locally. The learning within the resources mirrors the learning available in all the previous sections
This resource supports people working in vaccination settings to develop learning on how communication skills in the context of their role, can be used to achieve positive shared experiences.
The resource supports delivery of a facilitated session that lasts approximately 3.5 hours.
The suite of resources includes everything required for delivery:
Learning outcomes - By the end of this session participants will:
Practitioners involved in vaccination should discuss locally available opportunities with their supervisor / line manager.
It is important to note that different COVID-19 vaccines may become available and that they will have different storage, dilution/reconstitution and administration requirements. You must be familiar with the specific recommendations for the COVID-19 vaccine you are delivering.
You can find learning resources to support the development of vaccine specific knowledge in this section:
You will also find version control logs that highlights any updates made to the resources.
