The Centre François Baclesse welcomes a large number of students from the paramedical professions: nurses, nursing aids, therapeutic electroradiology manipulators, dieticians, speech therapists, etc.
In 2020, the number of interns was 365 and the average internship lasted 6 weeks. Every department is an internship site, with over 50% of internships taking place in care departments. In the same year, the facility welcomed 26 apprenticeship and professionalization contracts.
The teaching dynamic is an integral part of our core business.

Work-study students
The Centre François Baclesse created the manipulator apprenticeship in collaboration with the Lycée Jean Guéhenno in Flers. Since then, the Radiotherapy department has taken on 2 apprentices per year, and the Radiology / Nuclear Medicine departments also take on 1 per year.
During their apprenticeship, student apprentices are employed from September 1 to August 31 of the current year or the following year, depending on the year of study (2nd or 3rd year).
Radiotherapy trainees
The Center welcomes between 40 and 50 student radiotherapists per year from all over France (including French overseas departments and territories), all year round (including all school vacations). These internships start at the end of their 1st year of study, and last between 3 and 6 weeks.
Internship objectives are based on current standards.
During the internship, students will be asked to analyze patient files in order to work out their care pathway and the radiotherapy technique used. He/she will then be able to describe the patient's care and a detailed reading of dosimetry. This written work will then be corrected by the tutor, and any positive or negative comments will be given back to the student to help him or her progress.
The radiotherapy department offers each student the opportunity to discover different treatment techniques:
- Conformation (Artiste / Siemens - Clinac / Varian)
- Tomothérapie ®
- Arcthérapie (Rapid'Arc / Varian)
- Stereotaxie (Cyberknife®)
- Contacthérapie (Darpac ®) (skin tumor technique)
- Intrabeam ®
- Curiethérapie (HDD, Implantation de grains d'iode 131)
The student can also take part in the preparation of simulated treatments and the dosimetric study of files (subject to conditions). The student can also discover other areas of the Center, such as chemotherapy administration, cache preparation, medical surveillance consultations, welcome consultations by the manipulators...
In addition, radiotherapy physicians and manipulators regularly give courses at the IFMERM in Caen and the DTS in Flers. We play a very active role in student training, both in terms of the courses we give and the support we provide during internships.
