TRAINING PROGRAMME

One of Prostate UK's major goals is to provide information and raise awareness of Prostate Diseases.

The ABC of Prostate Diseases
In 2006 we established a regular programme of free seminars on The ABC of Prostate Diseases which have been very well received and attended.   From 2008, the programme will consist of six seminars a year taking place in a variety of locations around the UK.

These seminars are aimed at Practice Nurses, General Practitioners and all Healthcare Professionals involved in the field of prostate care. They will include an overview of the three main prostate diseases, their symptoms, diagnosis and treatment. Recent advances and innovations will be covered as will Quality of Life issues. The speakers, who kindly donate their time to this important cause, are all busy people who are active experts in their field today.

The locations and dates for the next seminars are:
Manchester - 03 October 2008,   Cambridge - 14 November 2008,   London - 02 February 2009,
Birmingham - 17 April 2009.

Register here to book a place on the next seminar, details of other future seminars will be available later in the year.

Prostate UK also funds a programme of travel bursaries for BAUN members to attend these professional training courses: this is administered by the BAUN secretariat.
