I just finished the online oncology nutrition course on AIM.Center and I loved the course! It was very complete, with very competent and varied teachers. I highly recommend it to my professional colleagues! May you continue to do an excellent job! Im a nurse and i was a student in the first edition of the oncology and lifestyle course,and i consider it to have been 10 months of learning that greatly exceeeded my expectations. From the topics covered to the outstanding professionalism of the instructors, at this moment, i feel that i am a healthcare professional capable of making a difference in the care of people diagnosed with cancer. I feel that it was the best course i have taken in the field of oncology. I highly recommend it. I congratulate AIM and ESLO for organizing the Oncology and Lifestyle Training, which far exceeded my expectations. Participating in this training was highly enriching on both a personal and professional level. It was stimulating and challenging to reflect on and understand Oncology and Lifestyle from an Integrative Medicine perspective. This exceptional training journey spans from research to intervention, with scientific evidence and an outstanding faculty. I recommend this training not only as a valuable professional asset but also for the solidity and seriousness of the teaching, for fostering critical thinking, and for enhancing quality, efficacy, efficiency, and the humanization of professional practice in oncology.
