摘要

The current oncology workforce is struggling to keep up with demands for care. To address this shortage at The University of Kansas Cancer Center, we are educating the next generation about the breadth of careers at cancer centers. We describe the impetus for and process of developing an engaging infographic, “Charting the Course: Careers Along the Cancer Journey,” designed to resonate with high school students but which has also shown strong engagement and relevance among middle school students. The goal was to create a visual tool that not only illustrates the path of a cancer patient’s journey, but also highlights the various careers a cancer patient might encounter along the way. Ultimately, our aim is to build a comprehensive oncology workforce that is representative of the population we serve, thus educating the next generation of the oncology workforce and improving the health of our community at large.
