ABSTRACT
Through an "educate-the-educator" twinning model, pediatric oncology nurse educator roles and programs have been established at hospitals in Latin America since 2008. However, with increasing demand for nurse educator programs in the region, a twinning approach was no longer sustainable. Thus, a "nurse educator network" approach was established to scale adaptable, standardized multisite education and quality initiatives. The development, expansion, and impact of a sustainable network approach for pediatric oncology nursing capacity building in Latin America is described. The educator network approach serves as a potential model for other geographical regions. Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) impact and adaptations are addressed.
