Course Overview

The Disaster Medicine Training certification is an eight-week training for its learners to pick on protocols ideally followed during emergencies. Developed by the Stanford Emergency Medicine Programme for Emergency Response (SEMPER), students can access exercises and video lectures to study at their own pace. SEMPER's goal is to develop a standardized curriculum to train and educate all members of the emergency healthcare department.

With pre and post-module assessments, each learning module included in the course syllabus is replete with assessment tests and case studies to facilitate understanding. Learners are empowered to manage the first 72 hours of any emergency when there are delays in receiving external help. Leading experts across the field of emergency medicine teach Disaster Medicine Training certification learners as guest lecturers.

Based on medical studies, this Disaster Medicine Training helps in building agile medical and nursing teams. Professor Jessica Ngo - Clinical Assistant from Stanford University, takes charge of expediting the program’s curriculum. By paying a nominal fee, students can access the Statement of Accomplishment from Stanford University.
