The Cancer Screening Landscape webinar series is a 6 webinar series offered in a live webinar format scheduled every other month on the second Wednesday of the month from 12-1pm. The live opportunity offers the opportunity to ask questions of the Subject Matter Expert (SME) as well as dialogue with colleagues about the cancer and cancer screening landscape. 1 Continuing Education credit will be awarded for each webinar attended.
The desired outcomes of this series are:
- Develop competencies to communicate cancer screening awareness and patient education effectively.
- Describe best practices to determine appropriate testing for individuals that meet guidelines for cancer screening.
- Explain existing and emerging issues, policies, and barriers to optimizing cancer screening.
