This module is designed to equip you with an appreciation of the patient experience whilst also developing your clinical skills and knowledge to ensure safe and effective practice in relation to systemic anti-cancer therapies (SACT).
The assessment components are designed to provide you with the opportunity to critically reflect on your own learning journey, and demonstrate competencies required in the safe delivery of systemic anti-cancer treatments through completion of the SACT Passport and a clinical scenario-based online exam.

There are theory and practice components to the course and the practice components are flexible depending on the level of SACT administration experience.
