Promoting oral cancer screening by general practitioners in Australia: Strengthening primary healthcare
To support GPs, an e-learning module on oral cancer screening, prevention and early detection was established as part of the Oral Cancer Screening and Prevention Program (funded by the Victorian Department of Health). The development of the e-learning module was led by Dental Health Services Victoria in partnership with The Royal Australian College of General Practitioners (RACGP), and the content was developed in consultation with experts from the University of Melbourne, Cancer Council Victoria and the Victorian Comprehensive Cancer Centre. The Oral Cancer: Prevention, early detection and referral e-learning module was launched on the RACGP training website in November 2023.
