ArcMesa Educators Announces First Interdisciplinary Prostate Cancer Congress

MONROW TOWNSHIP, N.J., Oct. 29 /PRNewswire/ -- ArcMesa Educators, a multi- accredited provider of award winning continuing education courses, is proud to announce its first annual Interdisciplinary Prostate Cancer Congress (IPCC) taking place in March 2008. This unique congress seeks to foster a paradigm shift to an integrated prostate cancer care team approach among two physician groups actively involved in treatment, namely the oncologist and the urologist.

It will be part of a broadening initiative of medical education programming focused on the same theme by identifying and assessing rapid advancements in therapeutics and new treatment modalities with the goal of improved patient outcomes.

IPCC also marks another bold step in ArcMesa Educators' strategic realignment with its dedicated focus to provide cutting edge information in an environment and format conducive to the educational needs of physicians. In the rapidly evolving field of independent medical education, ArcMesa Educators is taking a leadership role.

"The Congress offers a new forum and format for our capabilities," explained Tighe Blazier, President of ArcMesa Educators. "More importantly, the new platform is flexible enough to address significant unmet needs in other high-priority therapeutic areas. It also aligns with the philosophy governing our actions which is that all of ArcMesa Educators' Independent Medical Education (IME) activities contribute to the best interests of patients and the medical profession."

The success of this undertaking rests on leveraging ArcMesa Educators' in- house scientific knowledge and expertise and building a foundation for the future in the critical area of oncology. With a long-term strategy to focus on select therapeutic areas with unmet educational needs, ArcMesa Educators is fast becoming recognized as experts and leading edge providers of IME.
