University Of Louisville Public Health Preparedness Online Courses

ARCHIVED COURSES
After the Anthrax attacks that occurred in the wake of 9/11, the University of Louisville quickly developed a series of online courses designed to educate healthcare professionals about the proper response in case of a bioterror attack. These eight courses are available below. They are offered strictly for informational purposes; no continuing education credit is available. For the latest updates concerning bioterrorism, consult our list of courses, or the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) website.
