European Training Programme (Syllabus)

Updated Syllabus: European Training Programme in Paediatric Haematology and Oncology – 2 Year Training Programme

The syllabus is a comprehensive document detailing the SIOPE endorsed training programme that provides the recommended essential training requirements for trainees in paediatric haematology and oncology to be delivered in a 2-year modular training programme with an optional third year possible.

The 2-year programme includes both haematological malignancies and solid tumors. Non-malignant conditions such as coagulation disorders and haemoglobinopathies/anaemias are excluded and will be covered by the European Haematology Association (Scientific group: Paediatric Haematology).

The goal of this syllabus is to ensure a standard training program throughout Europe, allowing the specialists in paediatric haematology and oncology to exercise their skills in a specialised tertiary care unit.
