Improve your knowledge through this program, where you will find the best didactic material with real clinical cases. Learn here about the latest advances in the specialty to be able to provide quality medical care"

Modern medicine leads its professionals to an ever-increasing and increasingly demanding training, which translates into the well-known oncological or multidisciplinary committees. The challenges of the present and the immediate future in the field of urology and Urologic Oncology force to have a specific Training that is only partially covered by the specialties separately, and that make an expert of these characteristics cover a real and growing need in modern medicine.

The current existence of new molecules in the treatment of prostate cancer opens up a completely new scenario for our patients. Any professional who wants to treat these patients adequately urgently needs to acquire new knowledge in an easy and effective way, since the advent of so much new information will unequivocally overwhelm us. Only those physicians adequately specialized in uro-oncology will have the capacity to care for their patients adequately and will be able to continue to their patients adequately and will be able to continue on this train that is already unstoppable.

For this reason, this postgraduate certificate has been created to offer the specialist an intensive and advanced update of his knowledge on the Oncological Principles, Functional Sequelae and Support Treatments for Patients with Urological Tumor Pathology. For this purpose, TECH has developed a syllabus with a theoretical and practical approach, consisting of multimedia resources and masterclasses given by a guest lecturer who is a reference in the field of Uro-Oncology. These sessions will bring the professional closer to the latest information in this field, especially in the field of diagnosis and treatment.

Get trained through the postgraduate certificate in Update on Oncological Principles, Functional Sequelae and Supportive Care of Patients with Urologic Tumor Pathology"

This postgraduate certificate in Update on Oncological Principles, Functional Sequelae and Supportive Care of Patients with Urologic Tumor Pathology contains the most complete and up-to-date scientific program on the market. The most important features include:

• Development of clinical cases presented by experts in uro-oncology. The graphic, schematic, and practical contents with which they are created, provide scientific and practical information on the disciplines that are essential for professional practice.
• Diagnostic and therapeutic advances on oncological principles, functional sequelae and supportive care of the patient with urological tumor pathology.
• An algorithm-based interactive learning system for decision-making in the clinical situations presented throughout the course.
• With a special emphasis on evidence-based medicine and research methodologies in uro-oncology
• All of this will be complemented by theoretical lessons, questions to the expert, debate forums on controversial topics, and individual reflection assignments.
• Content that is accessible from any fixed or portable device with an Internet connection.

Receive the most complete knowledge update through masterclasses given by a guest lecturer of reference in the field of Uro-Oncology"

Its teaching staff includes health professionals belonging to Urology and Oncology field, who bring their work experience to this training, as well as recognized specialists belonging to leading scientific societies.

Thanks to its multimedia content developed with the latest educational technology, they will allow the professional a situated and contextual learning, that is to say, a simulated environment that will provide an immersive learning programmed to prepare in real situations.

This program is designed around Problem-Based Learning, through which the physician must try to solve the different professional practice situations that arise throughout the program. For this reason, you will be assisted by an innovative, interactive video system created by renowned and experienced experts in the field of Urology and Oncology and with extensive teaching experience.

This course allows training in simulated environments, which provide immersive learning programmed to train for real situations"

It includes clinical cases to bring the program's degree as close as possible to the reality of care in medicine"

The main objective of the program is the development of theoretical and practical learning, so that the physician can master in a practical and rigorous way Oncological Principles, Functional Sequelae and Support Treatments of patient with urological tumor pathology.

This refresher program will generate a sense of confidence when practicing medicine and will help you grow both personally and professionally”
