Education and Training

Hemant S. Murthy et al.

Excerpt

At the heart of every comprehensive cancer center is education and training. The prominence of a cancer center is often correlated to the strength of their educational and training programs. Education is responsible for training the next generation of clinicians, advanced practice providers, nurses, other supporting staff, and researchers. This chapter provides the framework of education and training, specific to different disciplines, within a comprehensive cancer center. In addition, it discusses education beyond training, such as maintaining educational standards, and developing new programs that embrace the continuous advances in cancer care.
