GO University has received high praise for vision of closing the cancer divide by providing world-class education and training available at the world's best academic institutions to trainees from Low and Middle Income Countries without geographic barriers
The GO-U collaborative education model was recognized at the AAPM conference with the award for excellence in Education Innovation. The innovative collaborative education model allows experienced professors and oncology health professionals and retirees who may only have 30 minutes to 1 hour a week to teach a class accessible to trainees from anywhere in the world. The award was presented following results showing a major improvement in skills level for radiation oncology health professionals in Africa who benefited in the pilot phase of GO-U in 2018
