An introduction to the revised IBMS Cellular Pathology Digital Specialist Portfolio and the Brightspace platform.

A one-day face-to-face masterclass with the aim of guiding and empowering applicants in the process of preparing and completing their professional registration application/competence report.

During our most recent Training for Trainers event, many people expressed an interest in a OneFile specific training session geared towards supporting portfolio verifiers to complete the necessary steps to verify their first portfolio on OneFile.

During this session we will look more closely at the benefits of Mohs micrographic surgery to include improved preservation of uninvolved skin, better cosmetic outcomes and how it can be used on problematic infiltrative invasive tumour types. In addition we will consider the technical requirements in detail along with an understanding of the artefacts that can be created during the procedures and how they can also be resolved. Emphasis will be given to developing a comprehensive understanding of the skills required for the laboratory scientist to deliver good quality stained tissue sections
