e-Bug Health Educator Training

This course will focus on a variety of health topics spread over a three-week period. Each week will feature a different set of learning outcomes that align to the topics that will be covered. Most FutureLearn courses run multiple times. Every run of a course has a set start date but you can join it and work through it after it starts. Find out more Primary and secondary school educators, as well as those who lead community groups targeting children and young people. The course might also be of interest to healthcare professionals who work with children, for example, school nurses. Local authority or government officials involved in the management of infections and improving antibiotic use within communities, might also find this course useful. This course is designed for child educators in different settings around the UK, but may be appropriate for other countries and settings.
