Oncology Fundamentals Day 2024
OFD 2024 was a one-day, CCCEP-accredited, bilingual (English/French) learning event that took place virtually on Saturday, November 2, 2024 from 10:00 - 19:00 EDT.
The program focused on relevant and timely topics within oncology pharmacy and was geared towards pharmacists who provide cancer care as a portion of their practice, pharmacy technicians and assistants looking to enhance their core education, pharmacy students, new practitioners or health care professionals interested in foundational oncology education. The live virtual event was accredited by the Canadian Council on Continuing Education in Pharmacy.
