Hello,
This announcement contains important details about the upcoming – June 7 – ASCO 2019 Online Clinical Educators Forum (OCEF for short). Word went out earlier this month to our ‘on-site OCEF liaisons’ who serve as the main contact for reaching clinical faculty at their particular institution. Our liaisons help us spread the word, but I also wanted to reach out to this ASCOConnect group and invite everyone in it to tune in and also help us spread the word to your colleagues who may find it of interest. There is no charge for the event (thanks to the generous support of the CD/A SIG). Enclosed below my signature is the final program and this is the link to register for the 2019 OCEF:

After registering, a confirmation e-mail will be sent to each attendee. As in year’s past, if someone cannot attend the day of, the OCEF recording will be made available on the ASCO YouTube channel shortly after the event.
Thanks kindly,
Carol Brubaker
Manager, Professional Affairs, ASCO
