The course is developed and delivered by experts from the health emergency workforce within Australia in partnership with Charles Darwin University and the National Critical Care and Trauma Response Centre (NCCTRC) - the home of Australia's health emergency response capability. This course draws on the experience and knowledge developed over many years at the NCCTRC and provides the required advanced level of knowledge for health professionals to lead within their organisation in the field of preparing and responding to the next health emergency event locally, nationally, and internationally. The course is delivered online with one residential week in each of two core units - HEPR - Human made Disasters unit and HEPR - Communicable Diseases unit.
