The Immunisation and Vaccination Foundation is a blended learning programme.

This is for all new to providing Immunisation and Vaccinations

This course does not cover anaphylaxis or basic life support. This must be completed separately.

In line with the Public Health England (2018) Minimum Standards and Core Curriculum for Immunisation Training for Registered Healthcare Practitioners we have developed a blended approach of both an e learning and a face to face taught course which previously consisted of two full taught days. Those new to immunisation are required to receive comprehensive foundation immunisation training.

The programme web site is:– https://www.e-lfh.org.uk/programmes/immunisation/

The programme is free to access just register to use the e-lfh portal.

The course is designed around the updated National Minimum Standards and the competency assessment tool which must be undertaken in clinical practice following completion of the workshop. Please see the link below for a copy of the competency assessment tool for registered practitioners:
