ECO Endorses Educational Curriculum for Pain Medicine

The European Cancer Organisation recently contributed to the development of the Core Curriculum for the European Diploma in Pain Medicine, led and published by the European Pain Federation (EFIC).

This comprehensive document provides valuable oncology input into the curriculum’s broad multidisciplinary and multimodal approach. It is designed to improve the knowledge and competencies of doctors working in pain management, regardless of their initial discipline. ECO worked with EFIC and a range of other scientific societies to review the curriculum and provide suggestions on the content. The curriculum is implemented via e-learning, live teaching and examinations administered by the European Pain Federation.
