Training Health

Ambimed's pre-travel course can be taken remotely via e-learning, FAD or in-person at company offices.

The pre-travel course, which lasts approximately 1 hour, is a training moment prior to the traveler's departure to a destination other than his or her own country.

By imparting the knowledge and skills necessary to adapt behaviors to the different territorial contexts of the trip, the employee will be able to understand dangerous situations and know how to handle any problems using the resources at his or her disposal.

The training will include an overview of the health risks present in the geographic area of destination, an analysis of the main vectors of transmission of endemic diseases, mandatory or recommended vaccinations, an indication of the hygienic measures to be taken, and, where applicable, a focus on the extreme environmental conditions of the place of destinations and risky behaviors.

As outlined in the ISO 31030 guidelines on Travel Risk Management, best practices to be observed during work missions, including hygiene measures and appropriate work clothing, will be outlined.

Upon completion of the training, the employee will receive:

• follow-up materials of what was explained during the course for later reference;
• a certificate issued by the Ambimed instructors and signed by the employee will enable the company to certify that its staff has been properly trained on all the topics covered.

It is recommended that the course be repeated at least every 2 years so that the learner always gets the latest information.
