Epi Hours

NAACCR Epi “Hour” is an informal network and training session for central registry analysts and other cancer surveillance researchers. These 90 minutes on-line sessions are structured into three parts—an initial, small group networking activity, followed by a peer-led training or discussion session, and culminated by RDU updates and other communication. They are intended to increase communication among NAACCR members, provide RDU-tailored training, and promote professional relationships among cancer registry analysts, statisticians, and epidemiologists. The bulk of the session is the training portion, which is recorded and re-released through the NAACCR Training website.

Available Epi ‘Hours’

  • Communicating Cancer Burden with the Public: Iowa’s 99 County Project
  • Exploring Data Quality Dashboards: Get Tex’cited for the Texas Tableau Talk!!

A full library of past NAACCR Talks and Epi Hours are available at https://education.naaccr.org/freewebinars.
