I. Online Live Meetings - DoD Monthly Vaccine
Webcast Series
Course Description
MILVAX is launching a new monthly series of webcasts on vaccines and
vaccine-preventable diseases of military interest. Our goal is to provide an
engaging series of live, on-line training events. Our presenters will include
both military and civilian experts, speaking on topics of interest to the
"Vaccine" community.
These presentations are directed primarily towards a military audience, but are
open to everyone with a MILVAX Immunization University (ImzU) Account, via the
MyImzU interface. The presentation schedule will be available several months in
advance, however registration for each monthly webcast will opened only after
completion of the current months event.
The sessions will be approximately 45-60 minutes long, and consist of a 30-45
minute presentation, followed up by a question and answer segment. They will be
streamed live to your computer desktop via Adobe Connect. The audio will be
available only via VOIP.
Who should attend:
The primary audience for these presentations are those responsible for and
involved in DoD vaccination programs; health care providers, vaccinators and
clinic supervisors from immunization clinics, logisticians, preventive medicine
specialists and those involved in local immunization policy development,
hospital training departments and other healthcare staff interested in
increasing their immunization knowledge.
Online Live Meeting Schedule:
There are currently no online Live Meetings available. Please check back at a later date.
