TO THE QUESTION OF CREATION OF THEMATIC ADVANCED TRAINING FOR THE PARTICIPANTS OF GERIATRIC HELP TO ELDERLY CANCER PATIENTS
The accelerated process of half-life of competence in the most knowledge-intensive spheres (which is today 18-24 months, according to some specialists) presupposes an active dive into the process of postgraduate advanced training and thematic improvement of effective techniques of the educational process organization. One of such techniques is a modular technique. The modular approach to the organization and the contents of education has been actively developing in the 90-s years of the 20th century. It should be noticed that the modular technique is correlates well not only with a full-time education, but also with distance learning. We have worked out, tested and implanted a new universal technique of thematic improvement (TI) in the field of gerontology and geriatrics for all the categories of specialists and oncology service as well. The newly developed universal technique of organization of thematic improvement in the field of gerontology and geriatrics for the participants of giving help to the patients who suffer from stomach cancer in a full-time education is effective. It is due to a positive dynamics of changes in the level of individual academic achievement of the audience before and after thematic advanced training in the field of different competences, related to separate questions of gerontology and geriatrics.
