Prepare Healthcare Workers for Emerging Ebola and Infectious Disease Outbreaks

Train clinicians, nurses, community health workers, and emergency responders with scalable, expert-led digital education built for outbreak preparedness and crisis response. Taught by experts in their fields, such as Dr. Muyembe, who co-discovered Ebola.

Start Preparing

Featuring Ebola instruction from Dr. Jean‑Jacques Muyembe‑Tamfum, alongside comprehensive infectious disease and disaster medicine training from expert educators. Updated to include the 2026 Ebola epidemic caused by the Bundibugyo virus.

New Outbreaks Demand Early Healthcare Readiness

As emerging infectious disease outbreaks, such as the 2026 epidemic of Ebola disease caused by the Bundibugyo virus, continue to challenge health systems worldwide, healthcare organizations face increasing pressure to rapidly prepare frontline workers for high-risk clinical and public health scenarios.

From Ebola and Mpox to conflict-driven humanitarian crises, preparedness depends on more than emergency protocols alone. It requires scalable, accessible training that can reach clinicians, nurses, community health workers, and emergency responders quickly and effectively.

Healthcare workers remain among the highest-risk populations during infectious disease outbreaks, particularly in low-resource and high-burden settings. Ebola virus disease outbreaks can reach fatality rates as high as 40–90% depending on outbreak conditions and response capacity.

AidUP, Lecturio’s disaster medicine training program, helps institutions strengthen outbreak readiness through expert-led, rapidly deployable digital education designed for real-world implementation across hospitals, universities, NGOs, ministries of health, and humanitarian programs.

Learn Ebola Preparedness from a Global Leader in Outbreak Response

Dr. Muyembe is a virologist and global infectious disease expert who co-discovered the Ebola virus and has guided African and global responses to Ebola and Mpox for nearly five decades.

Dr. Muyembe-Tamfum investigated the first Ebola outbreak in 1976 in what is now the Democratic Republic of Congo and played a central role in identifying the virus. He later led research contributing to Ansuvimab, the first FDA-approved Ebola treatment.

The course series combines frontline outbreak expertise with evidence-based clinical education covering:

  • Ebola transmission and epidemiology
  • Clinical presentation and diagnosis
  • Infection prevention and outbreak containment
  • Treatment and supportive care
  • Public health response and preparedness strategies

Learners gain access to structured video education, concept pages, and outbreak-focused learning resources designed for healthcare professionals operating in both academic and frontline care environments.

The Ebola curriculum is complemented by broader training in infectious diseases, disaster medicine, nursing, and humanitarian response, enabling institutions to prepare healthcare workers for both current and future public health emergencies.
