Equip yourself with evidence-based best practice to confidently respond to disaster and terror events - online with in-person intensives.

 

The knowledge and experience of disaster and terror medicine specialists is crucial when managing crisis events in community and healthcare environments. Health practitioners, service managers, policy makers, and leaders must have the skills to respond quickly and decisively.

 

The Graduate Certificate in Disaster and Terror Medicine is a unique program and part of a suite of courses from The University of Melbourne that provide an evidence-based introduction to the key elements of this specialty.

 

Developed by the Department of Critical Care in consultation with industry, this course draws on the extensive knowledge and real-world experience of Australian and international experts, including leading emergency physician, Professor George Braitberg AM, who heads up the department's emergency medicine program.

 

Online delivery provides you with the flexibility to fit study around work and personal commitments. Your online learning experience will be further enriched with an intensive 8-day face-to-face program (two days per subject), which provides you with the opportunity to put what you've learned into practice through a series of bespoke workshops. It is highly recommended students attend campus for these workshops, but they may attend some of the workshops virtually.
