ASTCT Fundamentals of HCT Training Course Takes Place This Weekend – Registration is Still Open! Course Can be Applied Toward FACT Requirements for Continuing Education

Posted in :: 2021 Volume 3 :: Thursday, April 22nd, 2021

FACT encourages you to take advantage of the ASTCT Fundamentals of HCT Training Course. Hosted by one of our parent organizations, this course can be applied toward FACT requirements for continuing education.

The Fundamentals of HCT Training Course is a two-day conference that will be taking place virtually on Saturday, April 24 – Sunday, April 25. This course provides a broad overview and introduction of hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT), also referred to as blood and marrow transplantation (BMT), as well as cellular immunotherapy (CI). Throughout the lectures, participants will be introduced to numerous aspects of the HCT-CI processes, which are designed to develop or enhance skills required in the management of patients undergoing these procedures. This course incorporates case-based learning to emphasize application of concepts taught through didactic lecture with a strong focus on the pharmacotherapeutic management. Additional details, guidance, and review of clinical materials can also be found in the supplemental electronic handbook. The target audience for this course includes new practitioners, residents, fellows, pharmacists, and nurses or those training in this discipline.

Registration to the virtual conference includes access to the newly revised Fundamentals of HCT eBook. The Fundamentals of HCT eBook provides up-to-date clinical information and covers the entire transplant process from pre-transplant consultation to post-transplant care. This is a great resource!

Registration will close at 4PM CT on Friday, April 23.
