TCR Statewide Training
2026 Statewide Educational Program
The Texas Cancer Registry (TCR) is excited to sponsor the 2026 Statewide Educational Program for our Texas cancer reporters. Presented by Denise Harrison, LLC, this online training aims to increase abstracting and coding skills for intermediate to advanced-level reporters and provide a space to share knowledge with colleagues. All Texas reporters have the option of attending either April 8th or April 9th, 2026. The event will begin at 8:30 am and end at 3:15 pm (CT) both days. The same information will be presented on both days the session is offered.
- Option 1: Watch the webinar live in a group setting as a Live Interactive Meeting. Attending one of the host sites across the state meets the NCRA In-Person Continuing Education (CEIP) requirements. Six (6) CEIP hours are being awarded.
- Option 2: Attend individually by signing up using the Register Here link. When you click on the Register Here link, there will be a drop-down feature to allow you to choose one of the dates.
- Option 3: Watch the recorded webinar in FLccSC by August 31, 2026. You will not register for the webinar in Option 1 or 2 if you are taking advantage of Option 3.
