The ONS x ONCC Hackathon is a five-week challenge aimed at creating innovative training solutions for future cancer care delivery. Most nurses are academically prepared for the acute care setting with some also receiving education related to care delivery in other settings. Cancer care delivery requires attention to cancer-specific competencies and continuous professional development. Through this hackathon, oncology nurses in a variety of roles and settings will come together to identify solutions to address workforce preparation for the future of cancer care delivery.

<h2>Bridging knowledge and skills between education and competence</h2>
The ONS x ONCC Hackathon aims to bridge knowledge and skills between education and competence to support and validate those who deliver care. The need to build solutions that can be incorporated and sustained to support and nurture those developing and delivering content/learning activities as well as those receiving and being tested across different clinical settings.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
<h3>Challenge statement: How might we improve validated knowledge and skill transference in cancer care delivery settings that appropriately reflect clinical realities and meet quality care standards.</h3>
&nbsp;
<h3>Considerations include:</h3>
<ul>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Collaborative problem solving such as peer-to-peer support.</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Solutions could/may consider school of nursing curriculum, orientation of new nurses, skill development, knowledge and competence assessment.&nbsp;</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Solutions should consider locations of cancer care delivery and specific nuances to existing preparation and validation for those sites of care.</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Sustainability of proposed solutions should incorporate plans to support and nurture those developing and delivering content/learning activities as well as those receiving and being tested.</li>
