AFAC provides a blended VU23090 EpiPen Update course with online, self-pace pre-course learning and face to face training.
The online, self-pace pre-course learning allows the duration of the face-to-face training to be completed in a shorter timeframe.
VU23090 courses cannot be conducted purely online as participants are required to administer adrenaline using an adrenaline injector.
Due to the above requirements, it is highly unlikely that any VU23090 online course is an accredited course.

VU23090 should be renewed every 12 months.
