Over the last two decades, the European School of Oncology (ESO) provided a career development program to young oncologists by offering extensive learning programs. In 2020, the College of ESO was established to provide a fully comprehensive educational pathway that covers the different needs of medical students, oncology fellows and specialists. The following educational activities were organized worldwide: i) the masterclass in clinical oncology, ii) fellowships in clinical training centers, iii) the certificate of competence and advanced studies, iv) the medical student courses in oncology, v) the live e-sessions, vi) the refresher courses and vii) the Visiting Professor Program; and have reached areas where education is most needed and offered a variety of educational events in Europe, Eurasia, Middle East and Latin America. In this article, we present and evaluate the ESO educational programs devoted to young oncologists over the last 20 years.
