Overview

This monkey pox awareness course has two main aims:

  • to explain what monkey pox is; and
  • to minimise the risk of transmission of the disease in the workplace

Course media

Description

Monkey-pox is a disease caused by the monkey pox virus. It is a member of the orthopox family of viruses, which includes small-pox and cow pox. Monkey pox is closely related to small-pox, although typically less severe and less infectious.

Monkey-pox is a zoonotic illness, meaning it can be transmitted from animals to humans, although it can also be spread from human to human.

Its name comes from the fact that the first recorded cases occurred in monkeys, in a Danish research lab in nineteen fifty-eight. The first human case was identified in nineteen seventy, in the Democratic Republic of Congo.

Who is this course for?

The Monkeypox Awareness course is suitable for anyone who wants to know more about this emerging health risk. But it may be of particular relevance to higher risk groups including men who are gay, bisexual or have sex with other men, and healthcare workers.

The course can also be useful to line managers too, as it covers controlling the risk of transmission in the workplace.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
