Online Learning for Healthcare Providers

This module was developed by the Vaccine Education Center and the Office of Community Engagement at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP), in partnership with the Pennsylvania Chapter, American Academy of Pediatrics (PA-AAP), Pennsylvania Immunization Coalition (PAIC), and Philadelphia Department of Public Health (PDPH).

This free web-based, interactive session offers a two-hour training divided into three parts:

Part 1: Details the dangers of COVID-19 disease, explains the US system to authorize and approve vaccines, and highlights the safety & effectiveness of COVID-19 vaccines.

Part 2: Explores vaccine communication best practices.

Part 3: Reviews the module, offers additional resources, and explains how to receive continuing education credit or a certificate of attendance for training requirements. Continuing education credits are available for physicians, nurses and pharmacists.

This module was developed for adult and pediatric providers, immunization champions, and community members. The module provides better understanding of the facts around COVID-19 disease, how the vaccine approval process works, and how to communicate effectively about these topics, so that stakeholders — and their constituents — have a solid, or reinforced, urgency regarding what the receipt of vaccines can do to protect people from COVID-19.
