About EPIC®

Educating Physicians and Practices In Their Communities (EPIC®) was launched in 2000 to provide private physicians with free, high-quality immunization education. EPIC® was modeled after the Pennsylvania Chapter of the American Academy of Pediatrics' Immunization Education Program. The model was such a success, that in the summer of 2007, Georgia Chapter AAP launched the EPIC® Breastfeeding Program.

EPIC® is a joint program of the Georgia Chapter of the American Academy of Pediatrics in collaboration with the Georgia Immunization Program, the Georgia Academy of Family Physicians, the Georgia Chapter of the American College of Physicians, and the Georgia OB/Gyn Society.

The mission of EPIC® is to improve the health of children, adolescents, and adults through practical, community-based, quality medical education to healthcare providers and their staff.

Our EPIC® programs offer FREE peer-to-peer immunization and breastfeeding educational programs to Georgia physicians, nurses, and healthcare professionals in the practice setting.

EPIC® programs are offered in a variety of formats:

• Live virtual webinars: Webinars are scheduled monthly and can also be requested. See our upcoming webinars here.
• In-person programs: By request, we send a team of trained professionals to present a program in your office.
  • **For Immunization programs only. Request an EPIC® Immunization in-person program here.
