Abstract
The challenge of providing high-quality, relevant, time-sensitive continuing nursing education is particularly salient in pediatric oncology, where nurses commonly deliver complex protocol-based care to children enrolled on clinical trials. The Children's Oncology Group Nursing Discipline developed Portable Document Format multimedia modules to make a broad range of educational content regarding pediatric oncology clinical trials available to its membership. This time-sensitive educational content is accessible to nurses via asynchronous online education. To assess awareness of and user experience with the multimedia modules, a survey was conducted of nurses attending a Children's Oncology Group meeting. Over half (57%) of nurses were aware of the modules and half of those (51%) had viewed at least 1 module. Over 90% of nurses who viewed the modules were satisfied or very satisfied with the viewing experience; nurses younger than age 40 were 4 times more likely to be unaware of the modules than were older nurses (P = .007).
