South West Admin Oncology Training ‘An Introduction to Cancer’

A summary of feedback – Exeter RILD 13^th September 2022

What part of the training event did you find the most useful?

• The use of visual aids and interaction from the speaker really helped with understanding and absorbing the information.
• The teaching was well delivered and relevant, with clear explanations around certain terminology and abbreviations, giving me a better understanding to help me progress within my administrative role.

What three things will you take away from the training event?

• What Cancer is and how it develops and spreads
• The grading and staging of cancer
• The confidence to be able to support my team with decisions regarding the Cancer patients care

The training event would have been better if,,,

• There had been more opportunity for smaller group work/discussion.
• More images of cells to see the difference in them, including radiological images.
• More site-specific information.

Any other comments

• I will leave feeling more knowledgeable and prepared to do my job.
• David’s lecturing style is fantastic! As non-clinical staff, being able to understand terminology is so empowering.
• Well worth my time and travel.
• Would recommend this to anyone starting out a career in Cancer Services.
• The organisation has been most professional. I will be urging my colleagues to attend future training sessions.
