In an era where informed decisions are crucial to public health, understanding vaccine information and reducing vaccine hesitancy has never been more critical.
Vaccines have become an increasingly essential tool for lowering disease severity, decreasing global burden on vaccine preventable communicable diseases, and minimizing healthcare costs. It is imperative that pharmacists address and answer questions that are related to vaccines and vaccine hesitancy to the public.
Our advanced training is a tailored online program designed to support pharmacists and pharmacy technicians in becoming trusted vaccine experts.
We'll guide you in expanding your knowledge and expertise in vaccine selection and administration so you can be recognized as the “go to” healthcare provider for vaccine education and delivery in your community.
Pharmacists are accessible and trusted health care professionals. Often, they are the only health care providers available within rural counties and with extended hours, making it easier for people to get vaccinated without requiring a visit to a doctor's office or health clinic. This increases overall access to vaccines, especially in underserved and rural communities.
Studies have shown that having pharmacists administer vaccines helps boost vaccination rates. Pharmacists are trusted and trained professionals who can provide vaccines efficiently and safely, contributing to broader public health goals.
Vaccination is a crucial tool in preventing the spread of infectious diseases. By expanding the number of professionals who can administer vaccines, we can help control outbreaks and reduce the incidence of diseases like influenza, shingles, pneumonia, and COVID-19.
Pharmacists can help alleviate pressure on primary care providers and public health systems. This is especially important during peak vaccination seasons or in the context of a health crisis.
Pharmacists are well-positioned to provide valuable information about vaccines, including their benefits and potential side effects. They can also help address vaccine hesitancy by engaging in one-on-one conversations with patients.
Many people find it more convenient to get vaccinated at a pharmacy rather than making a separate trip to a healthcare provider. This convenience can lead to higher vaccination rates and improve compliance with vaccination schedules.
CEimpact is the first to offer convenient online virtual assessment as part of their immunization training certificate course. This means the pharmacist can complete the full training by demonstrating their immunization technique one-on-one with a CEimpact trainer using a web-based meeting platform.

Low vaccination rates lead to increased health risks, economic burdens, and public health challenges, while undermining community protection and contributing to the potential for disease outbreaks.
Pharmacists are positioned to decrease this risk in our communities.
Together, we can tackle one of today’s most pressing health challenges and contribute to a healthier, more informed community.
Addressing these issues requires a multifaceted approach, including public education, improved access to vaccines, targeted outreach, and addressing misinformation. Strengthening these areas can help improve overall vaccination rates and public health outcomes. Be a part of the solution.
Stay confident and competent.
