Abstract

Continuing professional education is now a well‐established concept. For some professions providing evidence of continuing education and updating of skills has become or is becoming mandatory in order to retain the licence to practice. In health care, this differs from one profession to another and between countries. More and more there is the requirement for evidence based practice, i.e. practice must adapt of change as a result of the emergence of new evidence. In 1998, EJCC demonstrated its commitment to continuing professional education in oncology by introducing FACET. The March issue of each year focuses on an educational issue and the remaining three issues on research and development in cancer and palliative care. Each FACET comprises of four sections presented in an open learning context: tropic, triggers and challenges, literature and resources, and application to practice.
