This online course has been developed by and for nurses with an interest in Haematopoietic Cell Transplantation (HCT) and cellular therapy (CT). It brings together the knowledge of nursing leaders in HCT and nursing care to provide nurses with a comprehensive and informative guide covering all aspects of transplant nursing, from basic principles to advanced concepts. It takes the learner on a journey through the history of transplant nursing, presenting concepts to help nurses improve their patient’s experience. It also explores research and auditing methods.

We are working on the new Course for the EBMT Nurses Exam 2026. You can follow our news by suscribing to our Newsletter here.
The EBMT Nurses Group has been working on this course following the EBMT Textbook for Nurses published in several languages. You can find them all here.
It provides adult and paediatric nurses with a full and informative guide covering all aspects of transplant nursing including a new chapter dedicated to cellular therapy, nursing implications and care. It goes from basic principles to advanced concepts on a journey through the history of transplant nursing, including essential and progressive elements to help nurses improve their knowledge and benefit the patient experience, as well as a comprehensive introduction to research and auditing methods. This second edition, specifically intended for nurses, complements the EBMT Handbook, a popular educational resource originally developed in 2003 for physicians to accompany an annual training course also serving as an educational reference tool in its own right.
This title is designed to develop the knowledge of nurses in transplantation. It is the only one of its kind written by nurse experts, specifically targeted at nurses in this specialist field and acknowledges the valuable contribution that nursing makes to patient care in this area.
The e-course is delivered entirely online, allowing flexibility for participants to engage at their own pace.
The programme is organised into 16 modules. Each module includes:
- Theoretical content based on a chapter from the EBMT Nurses Textbook (Second Edition), an open-access resource endorsed by the EBMT.
