Immunisation events

Stay informed and connected through immunisation related events happening at the CDCD and across WA.

The CDCD hosts events for individuals working in immunisation (e.g. nurses, pharmacists, Aboriginal Health Practitioners, public health physicians, epidemiologists, project officers and program managers) within WA Health. This is including but not limited to Health Service Providers, community health, community pharmacy and Aboriginal Medical Services.

These events provide an opportunity for those working throughout WA to come together for updates, to showcase projects and share learnings with others in the state.

Certificates of attendance are only issued to participants who attend the information sessions live, either face to face or online. Certificates are not provided to recording-only viewing. The recordings are available here for informational purposes.
