Exciting news!!
The Immunization Training website is now available. It can be located at
www.who.int/vaccines/training.htm
A training partnership meeting was organized on 25 April which brought
together 43 participants from both public and private sector. A website was
proposed to share training related information amongst partners. WHO has
developed this website, which is still in its initial stages. Although WHO
will continue to develop and maintain this site, we would appreciate it if
all parties involved in immunization training could contribute by sending
updated information on events, resources and documents for review.
Please check section entitled OUR PARTNERS for accurate representation of
your organization's current and future training initiatives. In order to
make this website a dynamic training resource, we will be sending follow-up
emails on a regular basis to gather new training information from partners.
Could each partner organization please identify a FOCAL POINT who would
keep us updated on training activities in your organization. Please send
this information to
