Digital transformation in cancer care requires a comprehensive integration of digital technologies, data analytics, and innovative processes to enhance the delivery of healthcare services. Achieving digital transition relies on the appropriate preparation of the oncology workforce through adequate education and training in digital solutions. The aim of the current paper was to develop a recommendations scheme for digital transition in oncology through healthcare professionals' and health managers' digital training.A mixed methods approach including a rapid literature review on relevant articles, guideline papers and statements of European organisations that was incorporated in expert's panel survey was performed. This paper is part of the EU funded project entitled "TRANSiTION" - Digital TRANSition and dIgiTal resiIlience in Oncology.Four levels of recommendations arisen from the current study and include actions in the following areas: (i.) policy, (ii.) education (iii.) clinical practice and (iv.) research. These recommendations are interrelated and collaboration between all relevant stakeholders is crucial on a national, transnational and European level.The recommendations proposed in this paper could have an impact on the digital transformation in cancer care across Europe. Strong leadership on a policy level, coordination and cooperation among the relevant stakeholders is the stepping stone to a successful and swift digital transition in healthcare systems.The recommendations aims to impact several key policies and policy improvements in Europe, including regulatory frameworks on digital health technologies; data sharing and interoperability; digital literacy among both patients and healthcare professionals and health managers and the use of digital tools for patient-centered care, to harness the full potential of digital transformation in cancer care, ultimately leading to better patient outcomes and more efficient healthcare systems.
