Education is a key element of ESTRO’s mission, hence the ESTRO School is proposing a vast range of educational opportunities to its entire radiation oncology community: whatever your discipline is, your level of experience, we are offering educational activities tailored to your specific needs which will allow you to grow professionally and advance in your career. It’s a pleasure to share with you the ESTRO educational programme for 2018. We hope you will enjoy browsing through this ESTRO Guide and will find it useful to select the educational activity most appropriate for you: • one of the 35 live courses organised in Europe or elsewhere in the world • a one-day pre-meeting course organised before • a blended (combined online and live) course to train skills or competencies such as positioning and immobilisation, communication or leadership the start of ESTRO 37 in Barcelona • a hands-on delineation workshop The ESTRO School is dedicated to supporting trainees and specialists in radiation oncology and associated professions in their continuing medical education and training.

• self-directed learning by exploring DOVE, ESTRO’s vast educational portal for guidelines, scientific publications, coursematerial, congress webcasts • a study visit to a centre of excellence in Europe or beyond. Throughout the year, updates and further information on all these activities will be made available continuously on the ESTRO website (www.estro.org or www.estro.org/school) and social media. Improving knowledge, skills and practice to ensure better treatment for our patients: that is ESTRO’s vision in terms of education and the basis of the ESTRO annual School programme.
