Background. Train the Trainer (TTT) Breast Health and Breast Cancer Education program was a workshop for nurses to improve knowledge about breast health and breast cancer. Methods. The TTT approach used several teaching-learning strategies. A total of 3 programs were held biannually since 2000; 32 nurses represented 20 international countries. Results. In 2000, participants represented developed countries. In 2002 and 2004, participants represented limited resource nations in Africa, Asia, and South America. Formative and summative evaluations using e-mail survey showed that over 1400 patients and families and over 900 nurses and doctors were reached. Conclusions. Findings support viability of international breast health and/or breast cancer education programs. J Cancer Educ. 2008; 23:267-271.
