Please note we do not offer these courses on an open course basis. All of our Immunisation and Vaccination training courses are delivered onsite to organisations. This delivery model allows us to deliver fully bespoke training content on our vaccination and immunisation courses, perfectly suited to the specific needs of your organisation.

We are also able to provide the necessary competency proformas required to ensure safe and evidenced-based clinical practice following completion of our Vaccination and Immunisation training courses. This will then allow the Registered Provider to ensure mandatory competency assessments are completed within the workplace by a nominated mentor/supervisor. If you need further advice regarding competency assessments or if you would like one of our Registered Nurse Trainers to provide onsite competency assessments, please do not hesitate to contact us.
