At participant level this means equal possibility for health care professionals like radiation therapists, radiographers, biomedical laboratory scientists and nurses and their educators to acquire competences on e-learning in general, interprofessional breast cancer treatment and how to ensure its safety. In addition, studying from such e-learning materials increases health care staff and ordering clinical units’ understanding about different phases, procedures, actors and safety issues associated with breast cancer therapeutic phase.
The eBreast project aims to cater to the educational needs of individuals at the bachelor’s level in nursing, radiotherapy, and biomedical laboratory science, and can also be applicable to Master’s level students, particularly those at the EQF Level 7. Additionally, the project is open to all health professionals.
