The Cancer Information Management program prepares students for a career working in hospital-based cancer registries or population-based, central registries. Cancer registration is the basic method by which information about the incidence, type, extent of disease at time of diagnosis, treatment methods used and survival of patients with cancer is systematically collected.
Scott Community College offers an Associate of Applied Science Degree, a Diploma, and a Certificate program in Cancer Information Management. These programs meet the state of Iowa AAS and Certificate degree requirements. The program is offered mainly online, with the requirement of a final 160 hours Capstone of practical experience with a Certified Tumor Registrar at a Cancer Registry.
The Cancer Information Management program is accredited by National Cancer Registrars Association (NCRA).
In addition to the general admission requirements of the college, applicants to this program must meet specific program admission criteria. The application process and admission requirements for the Cancer Information Management program can be found at www.eicc.edu/future-students/our-programs.
