CPCRE's educational focus is on:

• working with aged care providers and specialist palliative care services to optimise end of life care in the aged care sector
• providing updates in palliative care for primary care and specialist providers in palliative care
• working with Indigenous health providers and communities to improve their access to and the quality of palliative care services
