The development of the internet has revolutionized the way we conduct business, shop, communicate with each other, and seek information. This article reports on the delivery of a web-based 16-week module: 'The management of cancer: psychosocial perspectives'. Twenty-nine students represented by a wide range of members of the multidisciplinary team registered for this module. Electronic-learning programmes are noted for high attrition rates, but, in this delivery, attrition rates and assessment performance were compatible with face-to-face programmes of learning. The delivery of this module indicates that there is scope for helping multiprofessional staff develop their knowledge and skills in psychosocial care."}
