COVID Vaccination Protocols

COVID has affected the health care system in a significant way. We want to thank you for your tremendous efforts in delivering high quality care during the pandemic. We will continue to support you and offer you clinically-tailored learning using remote online learning. We are implementing the Michener/UHN School of Continuing Education vaccine policies for the 2021-22 Academic Year. You can access it by clicking More Info.

1. Proof of vaccination is not required of students who are learning completely online. You will, however, need to demonstrate proof of vaccination if you require entry to any Michener/UHN site for any reason.




2. For students who will participate in a provincial standardized chemotherapy/biotherapy regional workshop hosted by a local health care organization, you will need to communicate with the specific local workshop facilitators/organizers to confirm and follow their local vaccination requirements to attend the workshop.
