The EP&R Lunch and Learn program is for staff working in the Virginia Department of Health. It offers short powerful training sessions to address hot topics. On the second Thursday of each month the OEP provides a 30 minute (11:00-11:30) session on to provide a high level overview for those that are interested. It is the perfect opportunity to learn a little, eat a bite, and interact with colleagues. Review upcoming sessions and register on TRAIN. Previous sessions are also archived so that you can learn when it is convenient for you.
