European Immuno-Oncology Clinic Companion

Siyemi Learning proposes the European Immuno-Oncology Clinic Companion (EIOCC), a needs-based, multicomponent initiative designed to support and facilitate increased knowledge, competence, confidence, and performance among the target population of European medical oncologists and other members of the cancer care team involved in the use of immuno-oncology therapies. The European IOCC initiative aligns with the mission of Siyemi Learning by focusing on three key components: needs-based design, collaboration, and interprofessional learning. First, the project begins with a learner self-assessment activity to refine and validate the educational goals and intended results of the overall initiative. In the development of individual activities, the EIOCC initiative leverages Siyemi Learning’s relationships with ONCOassist, a technology partner, as well as the European Society of Medical Oncology (ESMO) and European Oncology Nursing Society (EONS) for broad learner recruitment. Together, the mix of activities selected for the EIOCC initiative will address the needs of the interprofessional cancer team, including medical oncologists, oncology nurses, and other healthcare professionals involved in the emerging field of immuno-oncology. Lastly, a comprehensive plan for outcomes assessment and dissemination, including publication in the continuing medical education (CME) literature, ensures that the lessons learned from this initiative can continue to propel the fields of CME and learning science forward.
