Education at the Cancer Centre

Empowering Learning, Growth, and a Brighter Future in Cancer Care

Professional development at the Albury Wodonga Regional Cancer Centre is made possible thanks to the heartfelt generosity of our community and the vital support of the Albury Wodonga Regional Cancer Centre Trust Fund.

Each year, the Trust Fund invests $100,000 into professional development across cancer-related fields. This funding supports a wide range of initiatives, including:

    • Conference attendance
    • In-house training
    • External courses
    • Professional memberships
    • Academic scholarships
    • Education equipment
    • Administrative support

These opportunities are open to healthcare professionals working in oncology care within our region.

If you’d like to learn more about upcoming professional development programs and how they can help enhance your skills, stay up to date with the latest advancements, and grow your career in oncology care, please sign up to our quarterly newsletter by emailing [email protected]
