2026 Mentoring Program coming soon

We’re excited to share that our next CNSA Mentoring Program is just around the corner — with applications opening in mid-January 2026 and only 20 places available for early-career cancer nurses across Australia.

Thanks to the continued support of AstraZeneca, we’re able to invest in the next generation of cancer nurses by offering a structured, meaningful program that nurtures both professional growth and personal confidence.

At CNSA, we’re passionate about supporting nurses at every stage of their career. Our Mentoring Program, delivered every two years, is central to that commitment. Over six months, mentees are paired with experienced cancer nursing mentors who provide guidance, encouragement and insights to help navigate the complexities of cancer care.

What the Program Offers

This carefully designed program supports individual career progression for both mentees and mentors, while strengthening the broader cancer nursing community. Participants will explore practical and relevant topics including:

Tailored guidance on career pathways within cancer nursing
Professional development strategies, including ongoing education and certification options
Advice on effective networking and building strong industry connections
Techniques to manage burnout and maintain resilience
Approaches to achieving healthy work-life balance
Communication and conflict-resolution skills for the workplace

Get Ready to Apply

If you're an early-career cancer nurse looking for guidance, connection and a safe space to explore your future, this is your opportunity. More details coming in early January - keep an eye on your inbox and the CNSA website.
