Building your Professional Network

Networking is an essential part of finding new job opportunities. To help you make the most of your contacts and learn effective tips and tools for making new ones, we've created a brand new section on cancerandcareers.org!


The 2018 Professional Development Micro-Grant applications are open through November 6th! This program offers cancer patients and survivors financial assistance to acquire or advance job-related skills.  A 2016 Micro-Grant recipient said:

"[After my training] the boost in my confidence is immeasurable. I feel relevant; I have something unique to offer.” 

Examples of how the micro-grants can be used include online courses, career coaching, workshops and certifications.

Join us March 23, 2018 in Chicago for the 5th Midwest Conference on Work & Cancer! This free event explores the complexities of balancing treatment and recovery with employment and is open to patients, survivors, caregivers, healthcare professionals* and anyone else touched by cancer.
