Cervical screening education is critical for the provision of a quality assured cervical screening programme. The CervicalCheck Screening Training Unit (STU) is responsible for the development, coordination, monitoring and evaluation of the education and training requirements of healthcare professionals involved in cervical screening in Ireland.
The purpose of the cervical screening education programme is to ensure that upon completion clinicians are equipped with the knowledge, attitudes and skills to competently deliver cervical screening and promotes a culture of high quality and continuous improvement in cervical screening practice.
