Course Overview

Did you know melanoma is the most common cancer for Australians aged 20 to 39? One Australian is diagnosed every 30 minutes, and 1300 Australians will die from melanoma this year alone.
The good news is that 90% of melanomas can be cured with surgery if caught early.
That’s why it’s so important to be aware of what a suspicious skin spot looks like and feel confident to talk about this with your clients. Your actions could save their life!
During this course, you will learn about skin cancer and its deadliest form, melanoma, and the important role you can play in identifying suspicious skin spots on your clients.

At the end of this course, you will be able to:

  1. Recognise potentially suspicious skin lesions on your client’s skin.
  2. Confidently start a conversation with your client regarding a suspicious spot.
