HIS runs a structured trainee education programme specifically for medical microbiology, medical virology and infectious diseases trainees which is aligned to the RCPath curricula. This event focuses on specialised settings, including burns units, neurosurgical units and cystic fibrosis units. View the programme. 

The trainee education programme comprises a series of three, independent, one-day training sessions per year (in February, July and October/November), over a three-year period. This day on IPC in specialised settings is one of the 9 trainee education days in the programme. An example three year programme can be viewed here. HIS members who attend 7 (distinct) of the 9 Trainee Education Days in the rolling programme and complete the HIS/PHE Foundation Course in Infection Prevention and Control are eligible to apply for the Foundation Certificate in IPC.

Lunch and refreshments are provided.
