   2. Complete the Vaccines for Children and Vaccine Storage & Handling Modules of the CDC’s You Call the Shots online training found here:  https://www.cdc.gov/immunization-training/hcp/you-call-the-shots/index.html
   3. Complete the CDC’s VFC Pre-Test found here (for those who have already completed option 2 in the past): https://www2.cdc.gov/vaccines/ed/vfc/vfc/
   4. Review the Annual Training Document found here: https://www.vdh.virginia.gov/content/uploads/sites/11/VFC-Annual-Training-Document.pdf
