New circumstances in gynecologic oncology have pushed us to develop new educational programs that meet the real needs of experienced professionals, so that they can incorporate the latest advances into their daily practice"

There are a variety of tumors in the female genital tract, which, due to their low incidence, are relatively unknown to professionals, and to which not much time is devoted in preparation programs on a regular basis, although they are no less lethal for patients. Proper response and improved prognosis in each case are two factors that depend on continued professional development.

This program was born out of the need for specific expertise in the etiopathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment of rare gynecologic tumors, and the requirement for specific accreditation in this field in order to select adequately skilled professionals.

This postgraduate diploma is aimed at providing up-to-date courses of action for patients with rare gynecologic tumors. In addition, thanks to this postgraduate diploma, the specialist will be able to conceptually manage the principles of tumor biology and targeted medical treatments, as well as other issues related to the diagnosis and treatment of Rare Gynecologic Tumors.

This Postgraduate Diploma will allow you to learn about the latest advances in Rare Gynecologic Tumors using the latest educational technology"

This postgraduate diploma in Rare Gynecologic Tumors contains the most complete and up-to-date scientific program on the market. Its most notable features are:

• The examination of clinical cases, recorded with POV (Point of View) systems from different angles, presented by experts in gynecology and other disciplines 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
• Presentation of practical workshops on procedures and techniques.
• An algorithm-based interactive learning system for decision-making in the clinical situations presented throughout the course.
• Action protocols and clinical practice guidelines, which cover the most important latest developments in this specialist area.
• All of this will be complemented by theoretical lessons, questions to the expert, debate forums on controversial topics, and individual reflection assignments.
• Special emphasis on test-based medicine and research methodologies in oncology
• Content that is accessible from any fixed or portable device with an Internet connection

This postgraduate diploma may be the best investment you can make when selecting a refresher program, for two reasons: in addition to updating your knowledge on Rare Gynecologic Tumors, you will obtain a postgraduate diploma from TECH Global University"

The teaching staff includes a team of renowned gynecologists and oncologists, who bring their professional experience to this program, in addition to recognized specialists belonging to leading scientific societies.

The multimedia content developed with the latest educational technology will provide the professional with situated and contextual learning, i.e., a simulated environment that will provide an immersive training program to train in real situations.

This program is designed around Problem-Based Learning, whereby the specialist 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 gynecology and oncology with extensive teaching experience.

This refresher program will generate a sense of cassuarnce in decision making for rare gynecologic tumors, and will help you grow professionally"
