Good morning everybody!
We are sending this out via the Listserv as a friendly reminder of this great
opportunity to get more involved with growing the future of Oncology
Rehabilitation specialists!
We are delighted to announce that Alexandra Hill, the Academy’s Centennial
Scholar, is putting together a formal mentorship program where a direct
connection will be made between students and new professionals, and Oncology
Rehab Professionals through a carefully selected process.

As previously mentioned, we are starting a formal mentorship program where we
will be bridging academy members with students and new professionals. Our goal
is to provide an educational and growing platform where future practitioners
are enriched with the knowledge of experts. Mentors are required to be APTA
Oncology members and practicing in oncologic PT for at least one year, which
includes those who have completed residency. If you are interested in becoming
a mentor with our Mentorship Program, please click here

The due date for expressing interest is June 1st, 2021.
We are extremely excited about the growth of the Academy and this initiative to
foster the growth of oncologic PT professionals. Thank you for all that you do!
