Advisory Boards
Program Evaluation
The Internal Advisory Board serves to 1) refine and approve recruitment strategies; 2) reviewe all applications and vote on each candidate; 3) consult on the effectiveness of the core curriculum; 4) review and approve candidates’ training career development plans and mentoring teams; 5) attend the annual EAC meeting; and 6) monitor and evaluate CECDP effectiveness and individual trainee progress.
The External Advisory Committee serves to evaluate the program by participating in an annual review meeting and providing a written report with specific program recommendations. Members were selected for their experience, expertise, and history of directing cancer training programs.
