This intensive, online training consists of on-demand lessons covering various aspects of COVID-19 vaccines,  followed by a live, three-hour online session where participants will explore possible legal implications of the Food & Drug Administration’s (FDA) approval of COVID-19 vaccines.

The on-demand lessons will consist of videos, PowerPoint presentations, and handouts for participants to prepare for the live session, including:

  • A video outlining foundational vaccine information, including:

    • Vaccine’s history and purpose.
    • How vaccines are researched and developed.
    • How vaccines are distributed on a routine basis and during a public health emergency.
    • How vaccine safety and efficacy are monitored
    • Strategies used to increase vaccination access and uptake.

  • A recording of a webinar hosted on Monday, November 9, 2020, which will cover:

    • The development, distribution, and allocation of COVID-19 vaccines.
    • An overview of Operation Warp Speed (OWS), a multi-federal-agency effort to quickly develop safe and effective treatments and vaccines for COVID-19.
    • Key considerations about shifting COVID-19 response from a public health emergency to a routine, endemic virus.

Participants will need to complete all on-demand lessons, estimated three hours, prior to the live session.
