This course serves as the initial training session at the start of the Cervical Sample Taker Training Course for the purpose of the NHS Cervical Screening Programme.
The blended learning programme consists of:
Self-directed learning and live virtual sessions w/c 2nd November 2026
Face-to-face training full day session on either 12th or 13th November 2026 – Venue TBC
This workshop will discuss the process of cancer causation, its classification and the classical features of invasion on cytology. It will also illustrate the features of those cases which arise in the invasive audit, in the hope of reducing their occurrence in future.
There will be a review of the findings from the published invasive audit reports, outlining what has been learned and where the programme may make improvements to further reduce the burden from cervical cancer.
Finally, there will be an outline of usual management options for those with cervical cancers.
Cases will be in ThinPrep™ Cytology

This course has been developed for histopathologists, clinical scientists and biomedical scientists involved in the selection and assessment of tumour samples for genomic testing.
This course aims to provide medically qualified staff with an introduction to cervical cytology and cervical screening. It will aim to provide an understanding of the morphology of normal and most abnormal material with ample opportunity to discuss cases with experienced cytologists.
The course may be helpful for international candidates completing their portfolio process or those studying for their CHCCT exam. In addition to practical cytology, it will also cover basic theoretical elements including an understanding of the wider programme.
