Yes. This course is designed as an annual update for practitioners who have already completed foundation immunisation training and are currently involved in, or returning to, vaccine delivery
This course is made up of a core annual immunisation update plus additional UK Adult and Child Immunisation Schedule modules.
The core annual immunisation update is approximately 3 hours and covers the key areas expected within an annual update, in line with the National Minimum Standards for Immunisation Training.
The UK Adult and Child Immunisation Schedule modules provide up to an additional 4 hours of CPD.
The total CPD hours will therefore depend on which modules you complete. Learners completing the core annual update only will receive 3 hours of CPD, while learners completing the full course, including the UK Adult and Child Immunisation Schedule modules, will receive up to 7 hours of CPD.
You should complete all modules relevant to the vaccines you deliver, or are expected to deliver, in practice. This helps ensure your training remains appropriate to your role, competence and local service requirements.

Great information throughout the course. I felt more information could be given in the learning however i managed this course in 2 sessions and was still able to recall information after 2 weeks for the final assessment. It would be good if you could see where you were incorrect on the final assessment.

The Travel Health Update day was excellent as always, the annual immunisation update was very lengthy with quite a lot of information repeated and I felt the GDPR section could have been mentioned only briefly as that is something we complete in great detail seperately
