Take Advantage of PHESC's Online Courses and Resources

With many conferences and workshops cancelled, the ongoing availability of online courses and resources will be key for professional development over the next while. As always, you can find PHESC's offerings online in all three of our focus areas:

If you're looking specifically for online courses, see our full course catalogue. Highlights:


Coming Next Week

Next week we'll have two new releases for you:

  • A new reflective webinar: Dr. Natasha Crowcroft of the Centre for Vaccine-Preventable Diseases talks about and gives the rationale for the current immunization program schedule. This will be very useful background for talking about current (and possible future) vaccines.
  • Also apropos of current news, we'll be opening enrollment for our online course Introduction to Public Health Surveillance.

Both will be in our Course Catalogue as soon as they're available.
