The PROTECT-Europe project aims to increase HPV vaccine uptake in girls and promoting gender-neutral vaccination across Europe. As part of this project, an online training course, mainly for healthcare professionals, entitled 'HPV Vaccines: From Prevention to Confidence Building' has been developed. This course aims to enhance the HPV knowledge and communication skills of healthcare professionals through online training in English-language.
The training is free and the first edition will start on 2nd September 2024, with the following modules being released weekly as per the schedule below:
|
HPV vaccines: From Prevention to Confidence building (20h) |

Module 1: HPV and related diseases (3hs) – released on 2nd Sept Module 2: HPV vaccines: an overview (3hs) – released on 9th Sept Module 3: Prevention of cervical cancer (3hs) – released on 16th Sept Module 4: Prevention of other HPV-related diseases (3hs) – released on 23rd Sept Module 5: Single-dose schedule and special populations (1.5hs) – released on 30th Sept Module 6: HPV vaccine safety (3hs) – released on 7th Oct Module 7: How can a healthcare worker promote and sustain vaccine confidence (3hs) – released on 14th Oct |
Once released, the modules remain available until week 9 (two additional weeks are available for course completion) so that the student chooses the most convenient time for learning.
Each module has its own exam and certificate (CME accreditation is under review), so students can undertake only the modules they are interested in. For those that complete the 7 modules, an additional certificate of attendance to the full course can be provided.
