Workforce & Education

Overview

The aim of the Workforce and Education working group is to provide assurance that all Workforce, Education and Training arrangements across the region for professionals working with children with cancer are appropriately designed and resourced and operate effectively to ensure the provision of high quality and safe healthcare and services and that requisite standards are met. The working group will feed into the Network Oversight Group, providing regular highlight reports and will work to an agreed workplan with clear aims and objectives in relation to workforce and education matters. The group will support the development of an annual conference and other regular education events.
