Cancer and Careers offers targeted and customizable in-house trainings for Human Resource professionals on the wide array of issues that may present themselves when an employee discloses a diagnosis. Cancer and Careers also works with leadership and HR to offer targeted trainings for managers and all staff, to facilitate Focus Groups and staff-wide surveys and to provide advisement on guidelines to support all layers of staff navigating work and cancer or caregiving..

Trainings may cover topics such as: protecting employee privacy after disclosure of a cancer diagnosis; establishing workplace ecosystems that support staying on-the-job during treatment and/or easing back into the work routine after time off; best practices when having “difficult conversations” with employees about work and cancer; guiding frontline managers when a direct report discloses a diagnosis and more.

Each partnership is designed in collaboration with the company making the request, topics, fees and timelines are determined on a case-by-case basis.
