Field Epidemiology Manual

The Field Epidemiology Manual was originally developed in 2007 by the ECDC and the City eHealth Research Centre (CeRC - City University, London) [1], [2] to support the European Programme for Intervention Epidemiology Training (EPIET). Trainers, supervisors, scientific coordinators, and facilitators created draft chapters using the lectures they delivered during the EPIET introductory course. The philosophy of sharing and building knowledge (in particular training materials) led to the creation of a collaborative information space for the epidemiological training community - The FEM Wiki.

Eventually, the ECDC decommissioned the FEM Wiki in 2022 and archived the last version as a PDF. Since FEM Wiki content was developed under Creative Commons, the Dutch Public Health Learning Support Company Transmissible decided to reinstall the Field Epidemiology manual as it was intended: a professional collaborative platform.

The FEMWiki aims to create a library of training materials for field epidemiologists.

FEM Wiki is an open information-sharing platform for all professionals and the lay public interested in public health. It is hosted and funded by ECDC. The content of FEM Wiki is provided by platform users and does not necessarily represent the official opinion of Transmissible BV. By contributing content to FEMWIKI, users agree to the conditions described under Creative Commons and FEM Wiki users’ code of conduct.

Article Portal

The FEMWIKI is organised into five main chapters. Below is a portal with links to each chapter's main pages.
